    I was thinking about replacing my cat converter with a Flux Capacitor, but no one seems to carry them and they laugh at me when I ask for pricing. Does that mean they are really expensive?

    I remember an episode with trucks on SPIKE TV where Stacey took a stock dodge ram 4x4. He did a dyno test with normal engine oil, he then changed the oil to synthetic, they dyno'd it again, he gained I think it was 8hp and 10lbs/t I have changed all my liquids in my truck to synthetic and noticed a difference in my shifting (gears) and into/out of 4x4, it just seems more fluid, my truck runs super good, I think its well worth it.
