I am smelling a wives tale in the making.

You need data, scientific data to analyze and then you need to test a theory in reality to see if the hypothesis is correct.

The only person that seems to be doing that is Jake. As much as I disagree with his marketing approach and fear mongering he is approaching it from a scientific standpoint and I applaud him for that.

What was interesting to me were the comments that he made recently about abusing the Boxster motor intentionally to blow it up and cause failure. All of the things he was doing were like fingernails on the chalkboard to me, reving a cold engine, banging on the limiter in first gear, the list was long. Reading it was aweful. Last I heard he had not blown it up yet.

The point is that you can have as many Eureka moments as you want but without research, data and experimentation you may as well make sacrifices to a head of cabbage, it will be just as effective as this speculation.

Not trying to piss anyone off but I felt the need to say something here.
