    Do you need to know, or care?
    Does the TRD shift knob correct the Reverse to Drive delay when cold? Or should I just go and get the damn TSB done?

    None of the engineers I know actually "laugh". They just give a half grin that says "I will indulge this pathetic attempt at illogical levity".

    I work in a group of about 140 engineers. We laugh a lot. Our work is not funny and it can grind you down. We counter that by having fun when we can.

    No YOU SHOULD HAVE KNOWN!!!!

    The muffler bearings are irrelevant, LOL. Every sense they went to the full floating mufflerator bearings (like a turbo, duh!) the design inherently damps out the phase shift.

    Obviously (come on guys, you have two know this?????) the catalytic converter ("cat" for short) has to be "ported" to increase flow or YOU ARE WASTING YOUR MONEY!!!????

    Don't be stupid and try to drill the "cat" with a regular drill drill. The ceramic matrix substrate has to be chiseled out. The best way is with an air chisel like this: and if you are too lame to have one, I don't even know why you are on the computer board.

    Explanation: I PM'd him to make sure he realized I was joking and that I wasn't actually trying to troll anyone. I never heard back.

    Everyone has to start somewhere. My 19 year-old self thought he was the shit, but he didn't know dick. I don't want to make anyone feel bad for speaking up or asking questions on this forum. I know that's SOP, but I think it's bad form and I try not to make it worse. I'm not passing judgment on others, that's just my choice for my own actions.

    Did you watch the video of my modified Kundt's tube? You might get a kick out of it. A speaker on one side drives the tube at resonance and the other speaker has an adjustable frequency so the standing wave in the tube varies as the two signals go in and out of phase.

    If I were OP I'd install another knob in the driver's seat to accurately calibrate the Butt Dyno to read pro specs. The closer the prostate to the vibrate, the more accurate reading.

    When you say "Feels like a turbo" do you mean when handling it in the dark?
