Boy, the Autofoam is the stuff that they insert in to the frame of car to strengthen and stiffen the chassis and also reduce the noise, vibration (act as sound insolation too). More details available here...

anyway, what is autofoam?
You should have warned your fren about this..... If you read my post, E-Manage realy can't control the original ecu, moreover AT can't enjoy higher boost than 0.4 bar, unless he add oil cooler and et biger radiator..... Better ask him to wait for Amemiya san to tune, or ask Amoil to send his ecu for turbo remap..... he will thank me for this, in fact i think 20k is very very expensive...... In KL will only cost RM16500 plus BOV and workmanship....

CoMBo8,

I've installed a dvd player in my 8. All you need are a couple of things to make life much easier as well as it being totally stealth

1. DVD player - Installed at the rear center console
2. IR Extender - To use the remote without actually pointing to the HU itself. A fine example is this

Did my installation at Dream Wheels @ Dataran Prima. Installation shouldn't take more than 3 hours as I was the guinea pig. My install took pretty much the whole day. Ran into a couple of issues but easily solved ... now that is

Hope this helps.

oh... okie.
I did get the noise checked up n the thing is the hav to open the entire assembly n most of the time clutch problem r not visually obvious, its usually trial and error in which they'd raher change every darn thing (clutch, cover, T/O bearing, transmission bearing, pressure plate).... of course la problem solved when initially the problem could hav been rectified with just a T/O bearing change.....
