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

Bit of a difference when you have to run a 6 ton machine on top of it to prepare the pistes.

Tbf tho the fake sounds do a good job of making you think it was petrol powered.

If id have got in that not knowing it was diesel then id never have known from the sound alone

Needs money for car parts :P

Makes sense. Chatted a few times with a guy who builds/runs drag cars with a crew in Stockholm and he basically told me that cops were cool with them running little things at night (even going as far as to telling where they wouldn't be) just cause they had great relations, and the cops knew the guys weren't tards (middle of the night, out in nowhere, with proper safety gear etc.etc). Sadly that's becoming way less of a frequent, especially at large events.  😕
