But I would argue that the average man is now more uneducated that ever to learn for themselves, and in fact less in charge of his own free will and conscious decision that ever before in todays world. Outside inference and the desire to conform will always restrict human freedom and ability to learn for oneself.

With mass marketing, mass culture, and a global worldspace, the individual has less rights to express their individuality than ever before. Without taking heavy cues from outside stimuli, the presentation of that stimuli is cleverly wrapped in modern euphenisms and brandism presented through mass media, the individual has lost the ability to think for their own without looking to outside cues. Even these 'unconscious' thoughts that we all have are in fact filtered through multiple streams and traffic light systems enforced by todays society.

What is truly my thought? what is truly your thought? or what has really been prepackaged and wrapped up into how we should think, how we should act and how we should behave given certain circumstance?

Religion is for those who feel a need for justice. I mean how self righeous would you be if you "knew" that when all was said and done the evil would be punished, and the good would be rewarded? answer: Very. Wouldn't that give you some sort of reason to continue to do what you are doing? As opposed to the somewhat irrational I will be a good person because I feel like it with absolutely nothing backing it up at all.

There is no justice in this world and for those who were born with a strong sense of it, you have my pity.

On the contrary Gordon

man has always built on the knowledge that has come before him, for wasn't it Sir Isaac Newton who said "If I see further, it is because I stand on the shoulders of giants"

Man has been given more freedom through democracy to express himself than ever before without out fear of retribution.

There is nothing stopping you from forming your own religion, floating a bank, creating a political movement etc etc.

certainly your thoughts have been formed by previous thoughts and experiences but that is par for the course, in fact I would argue that you could not form your own thoughts with out the previous knowledge doled out by others.

This is why Western civilisation has become so advanced because knowledge is in the hands of all people and not a select few.

    • Oh, also, forgot to add these photos I believe.
    • Thought i'd update on this. I was able to get in contact with Craig Lieberman and later on Darryl Alison (owner of Kaizo Industries). Darryl was able to help me verify that my car was in fact one of theirs and is helping me find more info on mine !
    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
