I didn't understand it myself either

I think maybe it's just an expression. When your intercooler gets heatsoaked, it is too hot to do it's job and is basically useless. Your car will feel slugish like your pulling a boat. I'm not sure if I explained it well but that's from my experience.

I kill myself sometimes. I really need a life. I just love picking on newbs. No harm intended really - I welcome him to the club - really.

I'll bet he's the only guy in PR with an FD3S - that means he is a very tight guy, a BMF and BMOC for sure.
Awesome, and......chicks dig it!

Is that my wife calling me? Later.
