Can we fix this forum's search function
You guys need to do something about this search problem. I hate that you can't search for any words with 3 letters or less. Which mean I can't search or Ron Jon, AEM, V2, CAI, 3.0, 2.3, 2.2, oil, etc. This mean if I want to search for "3.0 AEM V2 intake" all I'll get is results for intake which doesn't help me. This is why people post the same threads over and over
again because you can't search for what you want. Am I the only one that thinks this is a dumb rule?

i hate that i have to wait 5 minutes to double post....
the 1 minute search thing is my only complaint,but for all the stuff i learned/shared/laughed at, and the people i met/talked to, it's a minor issue that i can overlook, i'll wait the extra minute to search and if i don't feel like waiting i'll start a thread and blame the search functions when everyone tells me search

What about only allowing certain 3 letter combinations to be searched. Obviously some people would just abuse the 3 letter search.
CAI, V2, AEM, 2.3, 3.0
Those seem too important NOT to have in the search

The only thing that really bothers me is 60 sec. search time. Especially when I type it in wrong..Then I have to wait 60 sec. end up doing something else while im waiting and then forgetting about the whole thing all together.

And yeah, the 60 sec sucks if you type the wrong thing
