    Hypothetically speaking

    Hypothetically speaking, if a person wanted to disable the skip shift feature, all that would be necessary would be to disconnect the wires leading to the solenoid and wire a proper rated resister across the two wires. In that manner, the “computer” sees what it expects when it send a signal to...

    Interior Noise

    Several of the press reporting on development cars have mentioned the interior noise from the exhausts as being uncomfortable. I'm wondering if a valved exhaust which would direct exhaust to the side outlets or to a rear outlet would be an interesting after market offering. If the design is...
