I'd like blue, if possible, but even black will suffice. I am ready to pay deposit, I think. (No paypal, just bank account number, please)

well, I'd be interested in water and oil pipes, but water pipes would be better than nothing.

thnx, Vanny

One more question - why on earth did they decide to lower compression ratio in DFW? I know it was problably some sort of eco stuff, but didn't another mapping came along with lower compresion? If so, won't it be a problem?

D6C + DFW = will it work?

I have an opportunity to buy freshly overhauled D6C engine without loom and ancillaries. I want to swap it with my DFW, retaining ECU, loom, lambda sensor etc. from DWF and block, head, sensors from D6C. Will it be "best of both worlds", or is there any possibility that somehow these eleme...
