Don't lump me in with them. I'm an enthusiast of mechanic design, be it engines, weaponry, or productive machinery. Not a guy with a wrench that reads the marketing garbage AFE/insert other "enthusiast" brand that can't legally warranty half of their products.

 

I fail to see a correlation between people screeching variations of "forced induction is more efficient!!! Reclaimed energy!!!" and anything I've said.

If you can't be civil. Please leave

 

Edit. That goes for everyone in the thread

Maybe you guys could trade 

Its better to just get new ones. Shipping would probably cost  the same as a set of new ones.

I changed the tyres on my mum's car to winter ones.

All the petrol stations either have broken or shit compressors for filling the tyres up.

Would be nice to have one of my own.

Too bad those things are across the pond. 

Our equivalent would probably be Biltema.

I am trying to watch it using your first link with VLC but it is lagging quite a lot. What are the Ace streams? Can I watch it somewhere else?

Ace Player is based on VLC but its a dedicated streaming platform. Much smoother FPS but depends on your bandwidth and streaming rate. Im watching TV quality at 6000kbps.

that's a lot of plumbing... 

 

great idea but it'll take up way too much engine bay space, you'd need a huge car to do it...
