The one that I posted was supposedly taken at a cummins diesel factory

Huh, isn't that pretty similar to what some of the honda guys are doing with T3's?



(my wife actually made a similar comment last weekend, there was a honda tuners convetion in town and a few guys that knew me stopped by and got really curious about my Holset...)
