Does anyone know how much we're supposed to pump our tyres up to? I have stock 18" lux rims/wheels? Or do you actually need me to tell you what tyres I have? They're Michelin but not sure exactly what..

All Euro Lux+ run French made Michilan Primacy HP's, not sure about the psi though.

Tempe Tyres do it for $350 each. 235 45 18.

but need to double check if what they stock is made in France.

i had 17" michelin ps3 made in Thailand, a mate 18" ps3's were made in Hungary.

my spare 18" michelin pilot super sport's are made in USA.

bought 18" michelin pilot sport 2 back in april'11 and they were made in Brazil.

my old mk6 golf 118tsi 16" michelin energy's were made in Germany.

i think i'm addicted to michelins.... :p

the tyre placard says 33psi for light load, 36psi for heavy load i think.

but i run 36psi. 33psi is very comfy though...

Only a few psi higher than normal. Its not like you've gotta run 50psi.

if you love your rims, run it 36psi or higher.

if you're happy to buckle them when you hit small potholes, 32psi will help you :p

Has anyone done this mod - throttle body coolant bypass?

"Coolant heats up the throttle body, making the air entering the engine hotter. No coolant entering the throttle body makes it cooler, the colder the air traveling into the engine the better your engine performs. "

Also considering resonator delete too but not sure if it has any benefits besides "sound" and a bit of weight reduction LOL
