sorry to be the first to say it, but have a read of all the faq's and tech articles. People will be more willing to help if you do. Plus most of your questions will already be answered.

Read and enjoy. Took my a few days to cover everything i needed. It's all on there, details about fuel tanks, pumps and lines, exhausts, intercoolers, differences in dump valves, clutch choices, engine mounts, diffs, gearboxes... everything.
