      The Maya's calendar ends December 21, 2012. Everything else is just speculation.

          It just simply ends the current astrological cycle, It does NOT mean the world is going to end (if you think that).

            Or september 10th apparently.

            The exchange rate improvement is more good news in a recent string of positive developments.

              Contact John - JED M3 - over on www.s14.net. The box is tits, I love mine. It may take a little bit of tooling to get the holes to line up perfectly but I have no complaints not that it's on. Just went for a 50 mile drive and the sound couldn't be better!

                  alpha-n isn't really a "thing", it simply refers to the method used to calculate engine load and thus injector opening time. Basically, it correlates throttle opening directly with engine load, which works on ITB engines that are basically at WOT all the time (ie race cars) - but not something you'd want to drive to the grocery store with. Unless you are talking about an alpha-N specific branded ECU, but you can get almost any standalone that will do the same thing..

                  as far as the US dollar, me and the wife NEED to get our money out of canada, we've already lost 5% on the dollar since a month ago. the US dollar being so low and other currencies being so high just mean that exports are going to be way up, eventually it will balance out.

                    The transition between signs is what I'm worried about... but this discussion isn't for this thread, or r3v I've come to realize. Potential pole shifts, sunspot cycles and God knows what else... some say that we're approaching a "cleansing" part of the galaxy. The Maya knew their shit... and that's why the Spanish Missionaries destroyed their culture's sacred texts. Same with the Native Americans. Everything will balance itself out in the end though... this comic cheers me up:

                      we heard all the same doomsday shit for the year 2000 switch, the 9/11 attacks, the Gulf war (desert storm), probably every war before that, and every change in the millenia since the dawn of the calendar. Now we're hearing it because BOOSH destroyed the american economy and the world ends in 2012 because the mayans ran out of fingers and toes to count with.

                      and i would like to point out - if the mayans were so smart, why did they get crushed by the spaniards?


                      astrology = bullshit ;)

                        Most of the Maya actually disappeared... We haven't been able to figure out where they went although there are ideas out there.... And european diseases and superior weapons helped somewhere along the line I'm sure. WHO KNOWS.

                          scientifically prove that astrology isn't BS.

                          you can't, because there is no hypotheis or testable predictions or testable theories. it's all nonsense based off cosmological cycles - the same ones that used to mean the earth was the center of the universe.

                            To each his own Nando... I realize that Astrology isn't an exact science. It falls on the more spiritual side and it's not 100% accurate- but I can say that my chart describes me quite well.


                            Whatever floats your boat.... neither of us are going to change our opinions here... lets move on.

                              you can make it work at part throttle just fine... but you are totally correct in saying it's a primitive EMS setup.

                              This setup is great with the new generation. my older setup is OK, but the new one incorporates WBO2 and other setups... much better. Martin also provides excellent tech support and the product is easy to instal. PM if you have any more questions... glad to help.

                                of course it's not an exact science, it isn't science at all.
