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

Doesn't belong here but since we have too many, you guys can have some:

Nah, nothing too bad. It was rainy out and I did some handbrake turns. It actually did pretty well. Also did well with the Scandinavian Flick

All this talk about crummy gas mileage, and no one mentioned a first Gen Tundra that gets 15-17mpg with a 4.7L v8 and weighs 4260lbs.

My old benz could beat that with its rotten ignition system

13mpg... When it worked properly it got about 28..

But it was just pissing fuel in the end..
