BOV

Nothing really, maybe a minor tune would perfect it out all around.

sorry but a car that stalls for any reason is unacceptable. i thought we did away with all of that after about 1967.

Im not sure if many people do this method as I use to do it N/A to save gas and not be in gear all the time.

Car still shouldn't stall on you though. When I drive, I down shift and let out the clutch to engine brake, and as I'm slowing down more and more, each gear drop until I'm sitting in 1st.

But again, you shouldn't be stalling.

If you flog the car and then sink the clutch to let it coast, you will probably stall to. It creates a really rich condition for the car. That's not the proper way to drive

I have let it coast before. No stalling here.

If you're car is as rich as you say it is, I bet the rpms drop below idle. Punching the car, then letting off the gas and sinking the clutch floods the hell out of the car with gas. Normal people that know what they are doing wouldn't drive that way anyway

. My car doesn't have that problem, but then again my car isn't the average TC anymore

Yea it would look cool, but I think by coating the surface area with paint and possibly blocking airflow you would lose some the cooling effect.

I have seen the rpms drop below idle (500ish), but never stalled still.

You got it all wrong bro. Did you not read what he said to me first? He said he would "fart" on our car. Now, are you saying that HE sounds like mikescion, or are you saying that I'm sounding like mikescion? Cause it was just a friendly reply between boosted people, not arrogant talking.

Just kickin dirt at one another is always fun...

Swaintech has a service that will coat the intercooler flat black but does not affect thermal transfer. In fact they claim it improves it,,,
