but since more is going IN, doesnt it stand to reason that more has to come OUT???, I mean it more can go out the same sized opening, it just has to be moving faster, either that or the exhaust is already opened high enough to let out all the VTEC cycle exhaust and is just leting out smaller volumes of exhaust at through its big opening at the low rpm cam profile... dont really know how to explain this better.... like a water hose leting out water less than its total capacity for the low profile and at the high cam the hose goes to full spraying capacity

thats kinda what i do. all i do is move cars, take customers to/pick them up from their houses, and run errands for people in the service dept. if we're super busy on saturdays (always) and we're short-handed (99% of the time) they'll have me changing oil and stuff. its pretty bawlin.

damn... wish i could say the same.
we're like the second largest dealership within like 300 miles, but it's in Mississippi so pretty much every day but saturday i have all this free time and i have to look for shit to do. it sucks. when im at work, i want to stay busy.
so i made up this game called "tire bowling"
the used tires start on one side of the shop, next to the machine, and the room we keep them in is on the other side, so i try and see how many i can roll all the way across the shop and make it into the tire room.

only the jdm ones have speed limiters. they top out at 100 i think. the usdm p13's don't though i'm pretty sure.
