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

have actually never heard of it before and I follow chevrolet/GMC fairly close. At least the older stuff. Specs look interesting. May give my friend some ideas for his s10.

 

Yeah most people haven't heard of it before. People only started kinda of knowing its existence when it popped in forza 4....

So, does anybody know when a Mazdaspeed 3 will come out? One featuring Skyactiv? I heard 2018, but it's just rumours.

No, I want the full blown, "I am a true gearhead" response.

Closer to 5 actually.

Odd. Guess since it's mountain time, it's ahead one hour. Why wake up so late? Were you sleeping the whole day?

Well, sometimes you have stuff to do at night, and besides, don't you have work or something?

Well today I learned that if you toggle the high-beams it actually doesn't turn on the halogens but re-aims the low beams on the ML500. U WOT M8 MERCEDES

Well technically the halogens are supposed to be aimed for high-beam use but they only come on if you flash them while the lights are off. This makes no sense.

 

Well, now it makes sense since apparently it's a Bi-Xenon system.
