Message	up my car. I may give in to an EBC eventually, but my overall philosophy for my car has been to K.I.S.S. = Keep It Simple for Stupid people like me. I also got to speak to Jim Wolf about this, asking him if he felt I needed to have an EBC with his 530BB turbos. He said, "The car doesn't care how the boost is made, as long as it's reliable." I know the pundits right away will counter with boost jets not being a "reliable" source of boost, but I will prove that to myself. Maybe by blowing up my engine, hopefully not, lolam. I have gone against popular opinion many times here, but so far I haven't regretted any of my decisions. "Straight-line acceleration is probably the first aspect of automotive performance that any intelligent driver gets bored with." Peter Gregg "We owe a lot to the dragsters. They always break something, figure out a way to beef up the part and the benefit trickles down." Robo "Not everything that can be counted counts. Not everything that counts can be counted." Einstein "And now my friend, the first-a rule of Italian driving, [Franco rips off his rear-view mirror and throws it out of the car] what's-a behind me is not important." Raul Julia, playing Franco Bertollini while driving a Ferrari Daytona in the movie Gumball Rally
