I never spray mine...I always hand wash with a wet terry towel to start...then Armour all wipes on all the black. The key is to do this after every outing or at least every two days so it doesint build up. The engine in my pic has 12 000 km on it.

In their case, you buy a new car and it's already clean so obviously, not hard at all to clean up.

That looks good MG17. I know how dirty and sandy that bay can get in Florida.

Pro charger-- How do you like that K&N? Think it made a difference? Its gotta a visible gap in the shroud there that will be sucking in hot engine air

Ahhhhhh. I noticed a gain from mine... butt dyno only. After I changed it a bit, it seemed to work better. I sealed everything a little tighter to keep the fender air only
