Give him a break guys... he's new at this...

Everyone believed this at one point or another... it just takes some people longer to realize, because they got into it later.

I know I know... but that's not the way to solve this... I can understand making references to the search and the FAQ, but not calling him stupid or a newbie or making fun of him for not knowing. Im not saying you guys did this, but I see that happen alot.

In general, people on e-bay are trying to SELL you something. if you buy X intake, or X chip, or some generic muffler off of e-bay, you risk buying something completly not for your car, hurting your car, or not getting near the performance it says it delivers. i highly advise against buying chips, CPUs, and important things off of e-bay... rims and stickers, maybe
