What exactly about fluid do you want to know? Flow measurement of a specific fluid, velocity, pressure density, mass? What? Ill help you out with it all. Heat flow? Thermal energy? Radiation? Equilibrium? Conduction, convection? Give me a specific.

Explain to me how you are going to get heat to flow against an energy gradient

Yeah, I don't really see why some people are starting to pick on you. You've already admitted that you'd rather pay the extra money for a shiny looking part with dubious performance gains. I think you've said all that needs to be said. Besides, only VQ enthusiasts will question your choice. Everyone else will be very impressed with your engine bay.

Your exacty right. Some people cant get their heads out of their asses. They have no respect for what other choose to do because its not what they would do so they try to bash on other peoples choices and ways of doing things. Thanks for being one of the thoughtful ones superb and seeing things the way the should be seen!

Fluid dynamics blah blah blah, heat density- who cares?!

Im a finance major and according to my calculations you could have invested that $800 into a low risk government bond earning 5% annually... but no, you got a shiny piece of metal instead.

I win. lol

BTW redlude, What is it exactly your trying to prove to me? Your wanting to chase queer electrons around for a living...whats your point your trying to prove to me? Give me a solid reason and why you happened to get so far off topic? You are validating my inherent mistrust of strangers. I see you've set aside this special time to humiliate yourself in public. Good job.

Nope, i have quite a bit of $$$ put away in IRA's making more than 5% annually, thus allowing me to purchase such items But lets not talk about money because its personal and its a stinker!
