Must be that jumbly-wumbly thing happening again.

No way! This is why we have an archive. It is OBVIOUS that he is using search function to find it right? Don't we tell Newbies to search? And then we [censored] at them for reviving an old post.

shoot yourself in the face.
If you want colder air, try changing your blinker fluid.

PM GMK(Grand Master Khan) over on NECO is you want to go for a CAI(cold air induction). It is probably what you're looking for, but is not a bolt in operation.

When someone posts something as stupid as

There is nothing else to do but poke fun and make them cry, as they obiously know nothing about cars or how they work.

Take your own advice!
BTW, how are people ever going to learn?! I came onto CEG knowing nothing at all, thanks to useful people on this site, I've learned quite a bit.
