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

Sounds like a bad roller on a lifter, but really hard to tell. I wouldn't run it anymore aside to get it to a shop. 

i was thinking lifter-related as well..

 

I'll let him know.

I've run them in the few systems I've built for personal use and at my old job. Never had an issue, but I know NewEgg / Amazon would be good on RMAs for them

Yeah, and my friend is trying to tell me the trade is dying LUL

 

Cars always break and get more complex. The trade will never pay well or be appreciated as much as it should. Maybe its cause he has a gravy job as a Toyota master tech making bank replacing airbags and re-ringing motors all day, but its nowhere near dying.

Haha a cruiser is probably the least skater boi board you can get. Just rides over all the bumps, small enough to take to class, and easier to handle.

Well Im up late looking at car stuff. Seems either people like the ecoboost mustang or they are that douche that thinks their 5.0 with a intake and exhaust is God and everything else is shit and everything else sounds terrible....I know a few four banger turbo cars and turbo v6 cars that would hand the 5.0 mustang it's ass all day on the track -cough cough- heavily modified evos, Sti's, ecoboost mustangs, supras, turbo's civics, supercharged/turbo's 350/370z, it's like these people are that stereotypical douche in the locker room that peeks in high school and then gets surpassed by the nerds he picks on and while the nerd makes 100k a year and a hot wife he's going on 40 something a jock past his prime who fills his nights with alcoholism and spousal abuse, but it's ok because if he has that smug feeling every time he sees that V8, so smug he likes to smell his own aroma after destroying the toilet bowl.....ugh I'm getting weird from lack of sleep good night y'all! Loves ya all!
