Mugo... welcome to the forum... I think you'll find it very informative and lots of friendly and helpful people here. Join us at the next meet-up, hopefully a big year end bash! Be forewarned though... after seeing all the nice 8s, you'll have an irresistable urge to spend more money on your 8. :D

Thanks Sgflyer.
I think I'm pretty immune to modifications. I like my cars (near) bone-stock. :p
I'm looking out for someone who's done an oil-catch tank though. I'm having problems finding a place under the bonnet to fit it.
The gap near the washer fluid is too hot and most likely renders it ineffective. :o
Anyone?

Anyway, I always thought an oil-catch tank only work with the turbo, why would one need it on the NA car. Could you explain the need for one thanks!

The 8 has an E-throttle. Looking under the bonnet, I dread the effort required to service my throttle body. Large accumulation of oils and subsequently dirt will reduce the throttle performance if not damage it over long term.
I have my doubts about the sulphur content of most oils and petrol available in SGP and MY. This happens to be one of the killers of E-throttle (and high pressure piezoelectric injectors in GDI engines) :o

Didnt know the car got so much attention.
One guy actually was at my PI earlier than me on Sunday, standing outside the gate and kept phoning the agent to come down ASAP. Seemed more anxious than me.
Further more some guy popped by today and wanted to order red but soon after arriving started to have second thoughts.
I LOVE MICA!!!

Hey sgren, congrats on your ride! It looks great!! Pearl white is a nice colour... just be careful when speeding though.... white is easier to pick off with laser
