Re: Octane

with my commute, its 3 days @ 30$ for the tdi or two days @$40 in the chevy. But the chevy has AC, the Jetta currently doesnt.


BUT, what I will do, just to make sure I am not going crazy, is measure 0-60 times with 87 and 93 and compare. Give me a week and Ill produce some numbers.

Re: new police pads from StopTech (Centric)

Interesting, I was at my dealer today and whilst speaking with my tech working on the car (20k service), we were going over the brakes and their life expectancy. He was saying that they usually last between 30-35k miles depending on use. Ive got about 60% pad left in the front with a considerable li...
