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

The only ones they had in stock that were geared 3.23 were one four channel rear. (ABS + TCS) which wouldn't work in my car.

And another three channel rear that was apparently damaged in a crash. So thats a no-go as well.

How about a 3 channel rear thats an 8.5?

Would one of those bolt right in and let me keep my ABS?

I could try so hard. And get so far. But in the end it wouldn't matter if my ABS doesn't work.

Ah the joys of having mandatory yearly inspections..

(If my ABS doesn't work it won't be legal on the road)

How do they test your ABS? Get to speed and slam the brakes?

Well shit. I was hoping they'd just run a computer check on it that you could spoof. Uhh, punch the inspector, write out the paperwork and get the hell out of dodge?

Our inspectors would make the Gestapo look like amateurs. Which is great most of the time. But man it stiffs you if you need to work around stuff.

Extreme? That's only two trucks. Make it five and then you're at extreme.
