You guys lost support when 75 lbs was asked for
If they go this way, I would sure like to see the 94/00 lose 25 lbs rather than add to the VVT and that hurts me personally compared to every VVT in the field, but that is the way it should go.

 

Somebody else sent in quite a bit of info on the NA8 vs NB and that request was just for 25 pounds.

I can’t let this go because you are so dense sometimes. As I said above and as Rich just spelled out for the thick, the overbore is borderline noise-level minutiae but it is simple math and applies to ALL years/engines. So in your illogical scenario the 15lb BOP adjustment is applied to BOTH the standard bore AND the overbore so nobody is getting anything free or losing anything related to said overbore adjustment. Perhaps if you write this on your palm and smack your forehead a few hundred more times it will sink in, chief.

What really annoys me about you and repeatedly brings out the a-hole in me is that after saying stupid shit you double down and redouble rather than just say something like “ah, right, fair point”. But you “SOUND” rational and reasonable and probably sway people who don’t know any better, so I’ll just keep at it.

Now, if you’d like to delete all your posts I’ll gladly do the same because we both look pretty bad.

 

If you say so, chief.

:dope:

 

If it wasn't clear yet, I'm not going to argue the point you want to believe I am since you've never asked or apparently deduced the argument I was making. Doing so gives in to your form of debate which is both dishonest and serves only yourself. Instead you've insisted on forcing the debate to your point and haven't had the humility to even ask how my argument supported let alone was formed.

 

You enjoy being self-righteous and smug, that's all you're ever going to get from me.

If it were anyone else I’d go back and try to figure out what I missed, but anyone else would have clarified right away and I’ve been reading your nonsense way too long.

I think we should put Preston in that car ... you might be getting 25 added as well, probably 50  :)

Out of touch for a week so funny to come back and finally see some old school banter here :)

 

Brandon...going back to your first post...I will ask you directly...can you explain what point you were trying to make? 15# is a number only associated with overbore??

And I promise Steve wont read this so feel free to explain your point clearly...  

 

You and I and every other NA1.8 or 99-00 owner should be standing up cheering and agreeing with Jim's comment!!! Nothing else should be said  :hugegrin: #25 sounds great! Keep the VVT current weight!

drop the non VVT 1.8s 25 lbs, give the 1.6 a header, and we're all happy?
