new turbo
After a bit of advice, my turbo has become really noisy the last couple of days, [police siren] bought a different turbo yesterday but was wondering if I need to replace any other parts before fitting. have been advised by my local garage to change oil feed pipes, is this correct?

hid help needed.
I fitted a hid kit to my car earlier, tried them tonight and the passenger headlight seems to light up the pavement more than the road, tried adjusting the headlight aim but that just alters the up/down. any suggestions??? Thanks in advance.
