i beg to differ. on my honda super turbo b16 swap, i freed up 47 HP just by swapping fans

Before this is archived, a mod should probably go through it and clean out all of the cheese and BS first. Just leave us with the info....

Sticky is better than archiving because noobies won't have to learn how to search for the info. So which do people want sticky or archive?
