    LIPP High Flow Elbow

    Yeah, sounds like bullshit to me to. California runs a stricter IM240 test. And that includes visual. If not, good to hear. If a Democrat wins the next presidency, you can kiss this leniency goodbye.

    Voltage loss, then car dies.

    A brand new batttery will last longer than 10-15 minutes. There is quite a bit of info you are leaving out. Not nesacarrily on purpose. Something is missing.

    what is the purpose of a fcon

    You can also use it with stock injectors. But as stated, if you go to 550's down the road, you need another new chip.

    name an old movie

    Great F-ing flick, based on some fact too. Too bad times have to change. Since he said old, "The Longest Day" is a pretty good movie.
