Re: Some odd questions

Spark plugs don't give you any power , if they are good plugs then they can free up some power by longer / cleaner combustions. The K&N CAI set up may offer from 7 hp - 15 Hp.

Re: Some odd questions

might get a little more out of the CAI depending on how badly your car needs the air flow....

Thank you for the info, its nice to know. Also I am getting this tad ...er not so small whining sound. It really whines when i turn, BUT i had my rack and pinion replaced twice because of it and it hasnt gone away. Its on the belt line due to the noise increasing with the rpms. any ideas, i was assuming altenator, but i had that checked out and the fella told me it was recharging at a normal rate and he tried to locate the sound, it was a bit lower from the altenator...

Re: Some odd questions

Could just be a worn / lose belt. If not that , you might have water pump bearings blown out. Cheap fix.

that doesn't sound like a belt problem to me... it sounds like a power steering pump problem... maybe somehow its clogged or something to where its difficult to turn... therefore the belt squeals

Re: Some odd questions

Well , I'm a nocturnal person ,I sleep about 3 - 4 hours a day if at all. I do quite a few things for a living , My real full time job though is a Home Remodeller / Inspector. On the side I run a part time Pc repair shop and I do tid bit favors here and there on peoples cars , houses , etc. Quite boring actually. I usually post either in the am after 10 a.m. or around 3 - 4 am before I go to sleep. =D
