Default i was about to get the T28 kit...and i was worried about blowing engines

There's enough people with the same problem. IMO...i'd stay away.

As for nDBW...it's an awesome kit.

Default #1. I might be Canadian but I'm not from Quebec. The name's Mark.

#2. Do a search on any of the usernames I posted and you'll likely find either direct or veiled references to their stories.

Default Should be close to what your running now with the 310's.
