Who has the Forge WGA? What is your opinion of it? Would you get it again and does it spike real bad? I read 1 review over on speed circut stating that it spikes pretty bad.
I had one but never installed it. I have heard mixed reviews out the ass on it. One thing I will say it, its the most badass looking wastegate for our car hands down. Its gorgeous. If you get one to work properly, your a lucky man because its super high quality.

Transmission dropped. Two new casualties in the cause. The the nuts for two bolts holding the lower engine support (front motor mount connects to it) broke their welds inside the radiator support. Luckily there was enough slack with the rubber mounts that I could move it out of the way to drop the transmission. Might need to have a shop fix them if there's slop when I put everything back together.

Is that the craftsmen 260 something peice set with a black box and about 5 red drawers? If so YES I hate that.. try having them dump otu and you have to chase them down your driveway.. I now have a bunjee cord around it just to prevent that.

haha yea thats the one i remember the first time i had all the drawers fall out i was walking around my car over top of some grass and all of them fell out i was so pissed spent about an hour getting them all back the small 1/4" drives were the hardest to find
I've tinted fog lights using Krylon "stained glass" paint and covered with a few layers of clear and they come out really nice. It seems to be pretty durable so far. No rock chips or discoloration. Just another option for ya...

the yellow film i have on mine is lamix, good quality. Its actually a really thick film, super easy to put on and it comes with a UV protectant spray
That's funny. That's a first time I've heard that. Its actually very dirty lol

As simon said, weak inconsistent penetration, and I can't tell entirely if its just because it got ground off by the rivets, but from whats left there it looks like it was contaminated too.
