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

To be fair you should be able to start off on the flat to get the car rolling just using the clutch without throttle, most engines, even tiny 1.0 cars have enough magical torque that they can get by on their own without any throttle on a flat surface. Something you may need to do in heavy traffic.

Yeah though Everytime I went to go from a complete stop it was on a slight incline lol

Wish my sn95 wasn't totaled by a SUV full of cleaning ladies. It was midnight blue with a black top convertible with a rough stage 3 front bumper, off road H pipe, and magna flow cat back and a cheap intake from AM with a Banana 93 octane race tune.

Well you see fine sir, by evaluating the nature of the lad's previous posts I was able to deduce that the carrage part of his automobile was one of the few passable components of the possetion. 

You spelled carriage wrong.
