lol im sorry i dont know everything like you do... wouldnt it seem logical to ask someone on here as they might know. yes i know they are different now, but it didnt tell me if they were of the same efficency etc.. yes websites tell you imfomation about the 2 soughts but not if it was an upgrade from standard, lag etc etc

Trust me corolla boy my friend, there will be nary a time when I come asking you for help. Despite the fact that i think I'm suitably knowledgable myself anyway.
However, my point is thus.
As shown by "Hunty" who actually put a TEENY bit of thought his response.
Fine, put your links there.. But at least, like Hunty did, put a LITTLE bit of info with the link. A one liner. EG
"
http://www.turbomagazine.com/tech/0405tur_turbotec h/
that link tells you what a 360deg bearing does compared to older style 270deg bearings
"
See
Look, he's just put one line there that says what to look out for. Doesn't take a whole 15 paragraphs of his time, just one line.
A really really helpful link, with some idea of what to expect when you get there.. Quite a good response.
Instead you put but a link....
I mean really, doesn't it come down to, "If you haven't got something (nice) to say, don't say anything at all."?
