Do you just hate them, when people list mods and it looks really technical, then you read it properly and its stuff like air filter, spark plugs, and generally crap thats not worth listing imo

I hate it how everything, and I mean everything is abbreviated now days. Though I thought I'd mention that I removed the DTB from my 1.3 JTDM FGP a while ago because it caused a few ECUF's and made it go into LHM when I WDFDT M40 a FMA.

It's not even a true story.

I think JTDM means Jet Turbo Diesel Multijet and I forgot to de-abbreviate Fiat too, that means Fabrication Italiano Automobili Torino. Excuse the spelling, I don't give a fuck.

Depends where its displayed really..... Tech list are normally for people reference so they can see what works etc??? If you don't like it don't read it simple!

Ah I see the Dig now...... All that is listed so you know how or what to use if you wanted to copy that!! The reason the list is in so much detail is Rob got bored of being pm'd all the time asking questions about it! He doesn't display anything at a show just the RR graph!!!!
Guess no one has ever helped you or you've never asked a question how to fit something? Each to there own tho, can't all be perfect

I had a big rant on Audi Sport about TLA's (three letter abbreviations).
Everything is abbreviated on there and its fucking annoying! Especially as most forum search functions dont search anything thats 3 letters.
Plus its just ass.
