they machine the inside of them at the top where the "flap" is. Still doesn't open up like a stock, too big of a flap in too small of a hole. The SV only needs about an inch to open though, doesn't need to swing all the way open.

Mine stuck open and closed. Hit 30+ psi once, thought thats was going to be it.
Just before that happened it wasn't going above 5psi.
Sent it back for repair.

My TU sv jammed open but that was at way beyond normal movement. I am not worried. Only other "mod" I made was to use allen cap head bolts since stock ones did not fit.

If you can't post the links you can PM me or whatever. I just want to be in the loop here.
For reasons I don't want to get to deep into, TurboDodge.com did not renew TU's advertising contract. You can assume, imagine or guess the reasons why we would turn down money.

I suggest you try any one of our sponsors before you try TU.
Our sponsor directory is here.

I never really cared why he went away. I only think it makes the older threads harder to read with all his posts deleted.

Oh, and I believe a log by any other name is still a log - not a header.

I better not give my opinion or I will get banned. Lets just say I know Chris pretty good and I know some of the real reasons behind it. The people that banned his also know.
Too bad.

I don't come for the politics here, but just sounds like there was no negotiation to be had on either end. As for some that also got banned, I can understand some instances.

I wish there is an unmentionable list as a sticky so you know what you can say and can not say.

Other wise, all I get is "You have been warned" pm

A blacked-out Chrysler 300 just pulled up outside...
There are men in black suits pounding on my door and shouting...
I wonder what they want...

He wanted no involvement with the forum, he got what he wanted.

LOL, awesome. Well G & I were involved with his advertising contract. I believe his wishes were met.

Yea, there wasn't much left to be said between TU and Turbododge.com
One of us had to part ways, i guess in this instance TU loses.

Who Chris ? You can say Chris.
However, I have to admit, your statement is fairly bang on.

Which if i recall correctly, is removed. But hey, telling people that doesn't nearly sound as kick ass.

You also didn't mention that we referred to that person as a douchebag.
