Default Re: WF Festiva gear linkage and exhaust

Power delivery seems pretty consistent. Does have a lazy AC compressor and problem with low pressure lines, which might be causing extra drag (According to mechanic). Was just gonna add the headers, bash the cat in and see how it goes. Worth adding a cold air filter?

Have run fuel system cleaner through it. Says 36,000km but condition of car doesn’t seem consistent with this. Belts seem to be chirpy which is unusual for low km car, can see steel lines on side - is this a wear indicator?

Also the steering effort seems unusually heavy even for a non PS a car. Would lowering the unsprung mass with cheap alloys and lower rolling resistance tyres help? Or something to do with suspension?
