Alignment Question...
New wheels about to go on...First Tie Rod Ends are being replaced. should I have my shop do the alignment with the stock wheels that are on it right now? Or should I wait and put my new wheels on first, then get the alignment done?
Also, I was told the tires in the front of the car wear faster than the rears. Sounds true, any comments? Rotate every 5k...
And Finally....Does anyone have a Diverter Valve for sale? I still have my stock one and its MUST be in poor condition since I chipped and the car has 80K on it....

You should have alignments done with your summer setup on. rotate at 5k oil changes. OEM BPV is fine
because it's a rubber diaphram. it's not going to wear out - it's just going to break/pop. once it breaks, then replace it with a 710N (225hp TT BPV that you can get from your dealer for $30). people say to change out the OEM one because it's not rated for 15psi+ of boost and you get a quicker throttle response with the metal piston type BPVs like Bailey or Forge.
As much as I like the lifetime warranty with my Bailey, I'm on my 3rd one.

Couldn't I be leaking boost if my stock DV is leaking? how much better is the aftermarket ones?
