I literally just spat Red Bull all over my desk! I heard they caught the fellow cause his bike was too slow to out run the police vehicle(s).

Maybe that could explain why JP came in late today!

They'd have to be like 18mm wastegates. I haven't built something for such an anorexic turbo in a long time.

I dont think that was the case. I think its because the officer that showed up was a bike cop.

I have a cat, and a silencer.

But you lose something like 40whp with the silencer.

Maybe we should buy one of those DB testers to check our cars (and then return ot after ) They're not all that cheap.
