Arhcers:
No, bougth them at a Icelandic fiberglass company. Formverk is their name. Dont know if they are still making them. Were a bit pricy, 140.000 ISK
But worth it. :)

Yep..
But a sligth power upgrade. Saw this on the Zukiworld facebook site, there was someone who removed the crossover, and told that the torque had increased.
So I tried it today, and it's true!
A lot of torque moved down where you need it the most, and none lost at top rpm!
I am going to do the same with the family wagon, XL-7 soon as possible!

That TNT thing is crazy! Is it an old mine? Or leftover from some military testing?

I'm don't think you mean cross member?

No :)

It's the crosstube thing on the intake plenum. Normally installs between the manifold tubes on each cylinder banks.

Haha, no not a crossmember :silly: what Tom said :cheer:

This TNT was used as a float bomb, to destroy military ships near Iceland coast. This came to shore after the war was over. Then the sea has put sand over it. Recently there was a bad weather and the sea has wiped the sand off it.
These TNT's are still being found around Iceland today but only at the coast. Not at sea.
If they are found, it needs to be reported so the coast guards "bombers" can destroy it ;)
