BRIANA: Recommended post please!!!

Let's post a sticky that will forever be posted at the top of the page entitled:

POWER RECOMMENDATIONS

From that we can just post sites, parts, and all the stuff with power that we know of and just refer all the 'NEED POWER NOW!' posters to that sticky. Can we do this please?

I don't believe anyone would be in opposition to this humbled request to your kingship.

Brian has spoken but he didn't answer Joe's question.

Joe's got a good point though. It seems (probably since we've all been here so long) that every few days a new member will show up and ask the same old question of "how can I get more power out of my truck". Of course we feel obligated to answer, but the answers have become so robotic and unsatisfying that I'm tired of doing it. Can we just have a permanent thread or something that we can just make 1 long post for all new comers about the basics of getting their trucks to run faster. Then, if they have more detailed questions, they can actually post a seperate thread.

I think this will get rid of alot of repitition going on. And you know us dorks have a very short attention span

I don't know if that's something we can do but it was a pretty good thought by Joe. You score two points for that one

I have to agree. Being the quick learner I am, I noticed that when I joined I got very quick, rehearsed answers. They were great...don't get me wrong. But if we had a central repository for FAQ I think it would help. I recently had a EGR Valve Problem and knew I wasn't the only one. So I looked and looked on google and ended up back on FTE. I got the help I needed and didn't have to start a new thread or bother anyone with an old question.

Ok...I'll be quite now.

Sounds Like Book Material to Me

I think that "More Power Now" thread would make a hell of a good manual if we could ever get it compiled!

I don't think you all got that one. I was just busting on Frankie regarding the "Rehearsed Answers" comment
