it's just easier to say 'c20let' instead of reading the letters and numbers out seperatly (C20L-E-T) and for the simple reason that 'let' is an English word and 'xe' and 'leh' arnt! FACT lol. 'let' ftw definatly haha! but at the end of the day......who gives a fuck honestly lol?

Some knob actually said that to me yesterday. I've given up hope and just agree now for the sake of it.

Intercooler? Is that like a big radiator?
I always remember walking around a show with Andy off MIG and he goes 'That's a small intercooler on that Nova!', I was like, 'That's because it is an oil cooler you prick!'
