I was wonderingif you nice folks could help out the newbs and create a Glossary?
So I/other newbies know the "lingo"! If you could include year and trim spacific stuff also it would be great (96 GT stock trans, throdle body diamiter, ect.?)
Just a thought

So you want us to translate our car talk into human talk? Hmmm. Not a bad idea. I'll think of some things tomorrow and post.

Here are some of the ones I learned so far;
WOT=Wide Open Throdle
Cats= Catalydic Coverters, placed in the exhaust line for smog reduction
Cat back= Aftermarket exhaust pipes that run from the cats back, usally including new mufflers
X piper, H pipe, Off road pipe= An aftermarket pipe coming from the headers, with a wider diameter for more air flow. Can come with or without Cats. Connectes to the "cat back" system
S/C=Supercharger
TT=Twin turbo
Juiced= Having a Nitrous System(nos, NX, Edlebrock)
Nitrous=Nitrous Oxide sprayed into the fuel mixture at the in injetion piont. Causeing a hotter, more potent combustion. Increasing ***** power
Power Shifting= shifting gears by way of pushing on the clutch but not releasing the gas pedel.
Chiped= having an aftermarket computer tuning program installed. Having the ablility to change things like, timing, air to fuel ratio, etc.


I will edit this as I get more, and more time.
I am hoping this can go at the top of the forum for quick referance?
