Got to agree with Igor here.

Had Boge Pro Gas on my Golf for 5 years and 100K, still worked fine,
and I'm not an *easy* driver.

Put a set on Angela's 90Q20V about 2 years/40K ago, they are still
perfect. Would NEVER hesitate to put another set on any of my cars.
Would have them on my 100Q if they made them :-(
