          also just rememberd one time i asked a lordco guy about a aem wideband gauge and he said the sensor sat in between the carb and the manifold... didnt belive me when i told him it sat in the exhaust lol.... and he was behind the "performance parts" counter so he should know about these things....

            No, it had the dual turbo rotary inline 4 with VVT. Never did get it tuned right. It used to miss at 12,000 RPM

            It ran 9's in the quarter but at only 90 MPH (because of that high rpm miss). It used to run high 11's before I added 5 50 hp chips and a magnetic fuel conditioner.

                That Mustang GTR video brings up a good point; If you ever want to find out a person's real personality- just start talking to them about cars. It is the fastest way to find out if they're a B.S.'er or not. The majority of people out there (especially guys) have some automotive knowledge. But, very few have any real practical automotive knowledge. I've actually used it in job interviews for potential employees before. If they're upfront and honest, they'll say they don't know much. If they're the type of person that will brag, make stuff up, cover up their mistakes & lie to you, they'll just keep going on and on and on...just like that guy with the Mustang.

                Of coarse, you have to have some knowledge yourself or it doesn't work!
