• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

    Weight Limits

    Also you can remove weight that you can that is unecessary. The biggest one I can think of is the stock muffler which I understand weighs like 40 pounds or something. Trunk liners, uneedded accessories etc. Anything..do you know where the term "chopper" comes from LOL

    air dam, fan manual switch, falken ze 512

    It stands to reason that results are going to vary some with ambient temp regarding the air dam. the difference between 4 and 5 bars degrees wise is a few so at one ambient temp youll notice a difference while at say 5 degrees higher you may not see a noticeable change but I would say that with...
