First, get rid of the Bosch plugs before they fry your ignition coil, then post compression test numbers for us to evaluate.

get under ur car and take out the oil pan, check the inside of the engine, if it looks clean... then that's good (this is just one of the things to do, not the only one)... also follow falkore's advise... get NGK. make sure the timing belt is in good condition, and check the the pulleys, also make sure u have a good tranny. at least in good condition. uuuhhhhmmmm.... i think that's it...

and use of the search function on the site..... cause failure to use it adds needless repeat questions and needless repeat answers and constant showing that you dont read forum provided information ^_^

It's the Hayden 403 .... been putting that one off, but I'm thinking that I have to get off my arse on this and the multi-changes.

eh, the 405 is the largest you can get, for that line so i guess it would be prepairing for 100+hp then ^_-

I know what you mean, but does it fit??? Since this part is in addition to the stock cooler, anything is an improvement. I had been under the assumption that the 403 was chosen for fitment rather than performance. The 403 is the tranny cooler of choice in all of the DIY's that I have read for our cars, so I'd just go with that.
