fuel injectors can get build up
Termo gaskets ( gets colder air into the engine )

Can't you just run a thinner oil threw the engine to clear it out
Also has any one ever removed sump and cleaned it out dose it get much build up in there
Also mayb reset ecu once you do the upgrades as it may affect fuel to air will make it run smoother
So how do I do these things? (I wouldn't have a clue how to reset the ECU... ) We need a comprehensive DIY which is "how to do a full clean out and service" haha

Dont worry about injectors or thermo gasket.

As for ecu reset just remove battery terminals for 5 minutes and then reconnect.

Sweet! That's an easy one! So I only do that once everything else has been serviced though?

resetting the ECU, you could say, would make the brain of the car reborn, to relearn everything, start fresh.
