RETed will become famous soon enough
Let me just preface this...

I've been dealing with newbs like you for years now.
I've been dealing with newbs like you online for over 20 years now.
I can smell them from a mile away.
You think you know what you are doing.
In actually you have a lot to learn.
You know just enough to be dangerous.
You also have a chip on your shoulder that if you get criticized, you get all defensive and get all butt hurt.
Get over it.
You asked a public question on a public forum - be prepared for responses that you do not agree with.

If you're buying and swapping stuff just for the sake of doing so, then none of this applies to you and just ignore anything I say, period.
When I build my cars, I change and mod things that NEED to be modded - nothing more; nothing less.
My philosophy is: function over form.

I have owned it 6 years now.
I've been doing this since 1996, so that makes it 17 years?
Since we're comparing resumes...

I am also going to change other things in the future. If your a buff on keeping stock cars stock , than congrats, I am not a stock car buff at all. I bought it to play with and I shall.
See above.

I have been revving up my motor to 3 or 4000 rpm at shut down for the last 6 years and 80,000 miles with no ill effects or wet starts etc, etc, etc. You were skirting a statement that revving your engine ad dumping the power is a bad thing at shut off. Do yu think it is a bad thing for the motor?. Is it?. I have been doing it for 6 years and 80,000 miles and my motor is as strong as the day I bought it new , so if that isa bad thing to do than why is my motor so strong and never , never experienced a bad start or any thing of the like. I'm not convinced we are the same page. you sound angry. Why be so angry man , life is too short. Crack a smile and let the sun shine through ok?.
I don't argue with stupid.
You made your point.
I came to the conclusion that you're not going to listen to anything I had to add, thus, I ended my involvement in that thread.


Quote:
I don't know quite how to respond as it sounds like your chewing my ass and not giving me advice?. You sound almost angry?.
Dude, sorry to tell you, but you're nothing special...
Ask anyone who has known me for a few years - my road is littered with ignorant people like you...thousands...
Angry?
You're giving yourself too much credit.
I'm sitting here smilin' and laughin' at how much you don't know...
Try again.


Quote:
The one I bought isn't much bigger than the stock one.
This implies you're wasting money...

Quote:
I am moving it to the center grill because I want to gain more efficient cooling.
This implies you're ignorant on how heat exchange dynamics work...


Quote:
I plan to use the original hole drivers side to feed air over my coils.
I don't know where the stock coils are located, but if you need a dedicated air source to cool them, either the original design is stupid to begin with (ala FD), or you don't know what you're doing...

Quote:
I think it is best to leave this where it is as you sound more like my dad than any thing. Thanks for the ass chewing but no thanks sir.:0. I was just looking for discussion not discord. Some how I have written in your quote?, I opoligize far that.
I hope I am not related to you in any way, shape, or form...


-Ted
