After a decade, aren't they sort of obligated to provide a token HP bump?

The Thermapen. Super accurate and super versatile. I'm not a fan of one-job gadgets, but this has helped a wide range of cooking.
Since I got it, I can cook my meat to perfection, make jams the right thickness and look forward to making fudge as well.
The probe updates really quickly so you can watch the change in…
Some friends and I had to push my old Hyundai Excel back to my college dorm one time. The final stretch was a long, downhill slope that turned right into the parking lot for my building. Once we got it to the top of the hill, we all decided to just hop in and ride it down. The brakes, while unassisted, were enough to…
Alan, if you go US-50 and over the Bay Bridge and use 301 you avoid all the tolls on I-95 in MD. Then use 295 instead of the turnpike in NJ. You'll save enough to take your girl for dinner.
Saving $5 here and $5 there really helped me go from not saving at all to saving a few hundred a month on the same salary without even noticing the money was gone. Living paycheck to paycheck the thought of taking $50 an automatically putting it into savings seemed like more than I could afford. But I realized, sure,…
I completely agree here, Cyclocross is the way to go for anyone looking to break into biking. I started riding a true road bike as a daily commuter and the abuse was just a little too much for it, lots of repair dollars racking up very quickly in not a lot of time. I switched over to a cyclocross bike and haven't had…
Recumbents are comfy, but they're awful for going up hills. If the skinny seat is hurting you, swing by your local bike shop and have them help you find something that you'll be more comfortable on. Stock bike seats are usually pretty shitty. If you can find one that matches your bone structure well, they're not…
My only advice would be to buy a bike that you'll love riding and that is "fitted" to you. Prior to getting my Trek 7.1, I'd only had bikes that were heavy and purchased from an auto supply store or big-box retailer - and likely assembled by someone who wasn't totally proficient at doing so.
One more thing. NEVER, EVER USE WD-40 ON YOUR CHAIN. It's really a poor lubricant in general, but it can't handle the metal shavings from the gears that will get on your chain. Saturate the chain outside at the same time that you are turning the pedals/changing gears (put bike upside down) with something like…
Spoken like a true spec sheet masturbator.
I saw this video a while ago, and its a pretty rad idea, but $535? my fashion sense isn't worth that much, Ill wear my $60 helmet.
That's a pretty blanket and poor statement. Yes, some sound like total ass, but I assure you, this engine doesn't. I've driven one for six years, and while there's plenty of other things about a GTI to hate, the engine sound is not one of them.
As a former turbo-4 owner and current turbo-6 owner who generally agrees with your preference for anything other than a 4-cyl, I will respectfully disagree. I had a VW GTI 1.8T with a Magnaflow cat-back and aftermarket DP that, in my opinion, sounded pretty awesome. I can't speak for all turbo-4s and there are…
You might wanna start making your own cars then... the turbo 4s are going to keep coming. Your 4 cylinder overlords are coming whether you like it or not.
No, we cannot stop with competent, efficient, tunable engines just because you don't like how they sound.
Even if it's cheaper and not as Euro-chic as it used to be, the Volkswagen Jetta is still a perfectly nice car for…
