          Surgical and training expenses are thought to have amounted to over $20 million
          The first Acoustic Kitty mission was to eavesdrop on two men in a park outside the Soviet compound on Wisconsin Avenue in Washington, D.C. The cat was released nearby, but was hit and killed by a taxi almost immediately.

          Our tax dollars at work. ~190$ million in 2013 USD

          This one is my personal favorite.

            Funny most "purists" don't even have nice M20s to begin with.

            Hate on 24v just because its not what you have!

              I've got both at this point so I may be biased. I can see where you're coming from but stop acting like M50 isn't an upgrade!

                  Haha well I've acquired quite the stockpile of M20 stuff. Both B27 and B25. When the time comes let me know and I can give you some ideas. Try to save you some dough where I made mistakes!

                  I'm super happy with my M20. You should drive it sometime!

                        If you've never owned/worked on a 24v motor (m5x/s5x), where are you getting this info that the m50 is just "meh"?

                        An s50 is just a stroked/cammed m50 with a few other nice goodies....so I wouldn't say that an m20 is all mighty, because there are a ton of engines out there that I would take over a plain ol' m20 lol

                              Not that you would be the prime example of knowing how to wrench on your car ;)

                                I believe I read somewhere that 2.5 is more flow than dual 2's. Makes no sense to me. But I didn't understand half of what I was reading.
