    Good Idea, Is there Interest Targa Strut bar:

    i think makeing them out of titanium is kind of a waist of money....stainless steel would be much cheaper and would do just about the same job...titanium as much stiffer then most stainless metals but the weight saveings would be worth the extra $$$ in my opinion.

    another curious question

    There is way too many factors to answer that question! How is your tune.. What type fuel do you plan on running....how big is your intercooler.... It depends on alot of different things.

    Confusion about coolant leak 2nd time around??

    yeah I really dislike people who offer to help but then make you feel guilty about it! But for yours and the motors sake dont drive it cause once water hits those crank bearings kiss them goodbye!

    Confusion about coolant leak 2nd time around??

    It could have a small hole in the gasket... Being that it sat for awhile it could have swelled a bit and pluged back up??? But the bottom line is that coolant WAS in there so either way its time for a head gasket.
