It takes betwee 1.6 and 1.8 seconds to ban a NOOB whose first three posts show a complete lack of etiquette on internet forums.

lol i didint think this would sit well with the regulars, and actually came in for the gangbang lol

but seriously, c'mon man that is more broad than "which is better turbo or supercharger".....that really is something you could find out by searching for a mere 2 seconds
