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

Me neither, but I think they do look good if they're generally cleaned up. In both styling and dirt.

Im amazed my car is so clean 

Wagons are not as good looking as sedans

To be fair you have slightly  worse concerns than rust.
