Was told to do so by Tubo supplies in Townsville . Seems to work okay . see photos one under each guard .

They have done so many 500rwkw plus turbo Fords in 2009 they must know what they are doing. Not many workshops in QLD have pumped out as many last year as they did. Proof is in the pudding!

mic Legacy Donating Member 1,725 Member For: 18y 8m Gender: Male Posted 06/01/10 12:28 AM Posted 06/01/10 12:28 AM id be goin to mackay to see blueboost if your closer to there.
