once again, flame away

Heh, actually it just means that I get more money and a higher title than the others 
Same work load it's just that it's been slower lately and I've been lazy, heh.

FWIW, I am sick of the sound my HKS makes, i really just want the best valve and dont care about sound, i'm thinking im going to switch to a Tial when i really start pushing hardcore amounts of boost. VTA is rice, but hell, we drive rice patties anyways!
