Not taking anything personally, once you learn how to post in the right forums i will stop, it's not like this is the 1st time you've done it, more like the 100th?

And why does it matter, because certain people on here actually use the search function (not that you do, if you had, you would of seen that this question has been answered tons of times). If you post in the wrong section well then that information gets missed if someone searches in the proper section now doesn't it?

Seriously man, the v6 forum isn't your own private forum to ask every single question your heart desires, they have the forum split up into different sections for a reason, other people seem to be able to post properly(even noobs), but its a constant problem for you. You've been on this forum long enough to know better, we told you enough times.

And I flame everyone who posts improperly thats been on this forum for awhile, most don't take it to heart, and most know I'm just screwing around with them to make sure if doesn't happen again. Noobs get a warning the 1st time and maybe even the 2nd time then I see no other choice but to flame them, maybe them being made to look like an idiot will stop them?

And for my final thought about this Yes i could just not post anything and just report you as i always do, but do you think Barry and Jeff want to constantly spend there time moving your posts to the proper locations? I don't I'd rather see them putting time and effort into doing mods to the forum and making sure everything runs right, as thats more important than making sure a member who has been on this forum for over 3 years can post in the proper section.

The pipes will work but the turbo t3.. i dunno.. it heats up at high rpms. The pipes cost around 175 shipped on ebay and require a bit of soft hammering to make them fit. They fit almost like a glove.
