It got so warm on Saturday and Sunday so I decided to do a mid-winter detail/protection with some PoorBoys Black Hole and Natty Blue. Now she's all shiney and protected for the rest or winter. :boink:

I always hear more noises in the winter. Which is another reason I hate this season.

And no you can’t feel a difference between 1 and 4 horses. Lol
A lot of things (metals, and even plastics) tend to get expanded when they get colder, so your issue makes perfect sense. I just don't like the cold weather in the first place though...

As for having a few more horses out of the filter, ...that's what I thought lol.

That's nice hear that.:) I'm glad that it contributed to your needs. Yeah, feel free to post some pics. Moa pix betta b/c picture is worth a thousand words. :thumbup:

Funny thing about sound deadening is that, once you eliminate the main noize, another noizes (which had been covered by the eliminated noize) start to stand out. You eliminate that, and you hear smaller ones behind. And it goes on.

I got to the point, where I was irritated about my key chain was hitting the key ignition fringe, so I decided to apply the tape on it...

Yeah I also need to tape up that white plastic like you did in your pictures. Seems like the glue isn't holding up much anymore. Will probably do more sound deadening once I get new speakers.

Lol it's not as bad as the tapping noise I had whenever I turned or when over bumps.. thought it was my cv acting up .. Turned out it was my HID ballast that came off its double sided tape.. I feel so dumb LOL. Anyway fixed that.. gives me more confidence to go lower now ;)

Received a K&N Drop-in filter, and swapped w/ my Bosch filter. Didn't expect how oily & smelly it was. As for the performance, Um.. Hard to tell. I mean, can somebody really feel the difference of +1 ~ +4hp? (I kind of felt like the car was running a little smooth like taking off from a gas station, right after when you fill it up.)

Doubt you'll feel anything haha. Maybe you'll notice it may be a tiny bit louder at WOT ?

Also,

One edition to my interior accessory:
