I wish people would take time to use the search tool here, read about cars cause like from every 10 post 6 or even 8 r very stupid like CAI gives me 50 h.p...
Here at Puerto Rico kids think like that. I could open a shop and tell them hey I would sell u a custom cai and exhaust at 600$ and it will give u 100+ h.p THE WILL BUY IT I swear that THEY WLL BUY IT only some1 that study mech knows its a lie... But here at P.R 99.9% of young kids think that a CAI give u 200 h.p...

how do u learn then? if all u do is sit there and be quiet.. no1 else will kno that u dont hav a clue

i think its good when ppl do that, not only does it give u a chance to explain it to them, but other ppl reading it will learn from ur little conversation too.. which is y its important not to bash someone for not having a clue wtf their talking about

and u dont gain 100hp from a CAI.. u get to it

inside joke for the 2.3 guys!! *highfive*
