I find 80w90 too thick for the n/a, especially in winter. The difference was immediately noticeable when I changed to a 75w90 fully synthetic this time last year. Speaking of which that's what I'm upto again this morning, just waiting for it to warm up a bit.

Quite. All the units are in US standard as well. I bet it even comes out 'letter' size if you try and print it :lol:

How about including a glossary of 3 letter acronyms? For starters....
AAR: Auxiliary Air Regulator
AFM: Air Flow Meter
CIS: Continuous Injection System
CSV: Cold Start Valve
FPR: Fuel Pump Relay
HSV: Hot Start Valve
OPC: Official Porsche Centre
TTS: Thermo Time Switch
WUR: Warm Up Regulator

Good idea, added to original post, thanks.
