my i6 has been converted into a gas saving 4 cyl model. so next week i'm taking the head down to the machine shop to get some work done. would it be worth it to up the compression a little, or do anything else while i'm in there? i do not have the time to take the engine out, so just doing the head for now as the valves are burnt, and sticking and runnin on 4.5 cyl right now.
i understand that the header on the i6 cracks a lot of the time by now, what should i do if mine is cracked?
aswell, in my ongoing d35 scandel.... was going to either put a super 35 kit in, or replace the carrier and left axle as they are both fucked up. redid the r&p about 6 months ago, and had a mass of shavings in the box, so redid it all except carrier and axles, and now notice spider gears can wobble in carrier possibly causing my 50-80mph whine. i don't really have the space to build an 8.8 right now. is there a cost effective drop in solution besides dynatrac that takes for ever and is expensive as hell? i've heard of bad experiences with curry axles before, so i don't know what to do. i only have 31's, and my car will prob stop running before i can put anything bigger on, so what should i do in this situation?
