    My 5.3 Engine swap

I work in Film production, so my schedule is quite hectic and my mechanical knowhow isn't anywhere near where it should be for this sort of build. Hoping to get...

    Looking for a Rancho kit

    Hey guys. I'll post this now and bump it every once in a while. If anyone is looking to get rid of their Rancho lift, or selling their truck and want to bargain for that separately, I'm a serious buyer. Specifically, I'm looking for the front end only but will take whatever comes my way. Cheers!

    What is this Electric supercharger business?

    Is this another "Throttle body spacer" type scam? Universal "Turbo fan" sits between the air filter and TB, and uses electric power to push 5 bars of air into your engine. Looks very shady, I almost dismissed the thought until I read Audi started using a similar set up. What do ya'll think?

    UPGRADE to Alpha? Another Header thread

    I'm thinking of trading in my i5 for an alpha for that extra power. Displacement is needed, but I'm not so keen on the gearing ratio. Problem is, I've already invested so much time & $$$ fixing up the i5... Catback, intake, PCM tune.. The only thing missing are headers, and perhaps a ported...

    OIL SEAL LEAK! Quick question

    Forum! My H3's rear oil seal is leaking (between back of engine & gear), and it needs replacement. This requires the job where the gearbox is dropped in order to access the oil seal itself (BIG JOB). MY QUESTION Does part of this job include undoing the Differential cross-member? or is that...

    H3 AIRDOC vs K&N intake?

    What do you guys think? AIRDOC intake vs K&N Aircharger Intake Kit (part #63-3065)? They are both available to me at the exact same price, so it all comes down to which is simply better at what it does. Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
