if you were a turbo mechanic, i dont think you would be asking questions.

Apparently you have something against using commas and periods. I definitely have to agree with badboy88000, I find it hard to believe that if you were a turbo mechanic that you would be asking these types of question...

Read braineack's FAQ. It is very very good and it is a great place to start. Search, rephrase, search again, rephrase again, search again. If you cant find the answer you are looking for. Ask the question in a precise manor so that we can give you the exact answer that you are looking for.

Also, like has been said, grammar and punctuation are wonderful. It makes you look much more intelligent and people are more likely to listen to you because they don't get a headache from trying to translate your words into something legible.

Oh, also, it helps if you use a precise thread title so we know what the thread is about without having to open it. The thread title "help" could be about ANYTHING. This one may be just a pet peeve of mine but i think it applies with other people too.
+1 to all of that. FYI to all noobs: The last n00b to join here with perfect grammar, cognitive goals, and a clear grasp of all the materials in the FAQs got a half-page essay from me on some of the finer points of their particular goals and an offer to get a ride in my car whenever they wanted. Do your homework and good things will come of it.

Stop posting. You have lots and lots of reading to do before you are allowed to post again.

Please, stop posting to every for-sale thread, asking if it will fit your car.

Seriously, I haven't seen you post anything except "will this fit my 90 car", and "how much shipped to australia". Damn man, just buy a BEGI-S or FM kit; it will fit your car, you can see how much power it's making, you'll get the support from them, and all will be well.
