924/944/951/968 forum acronyms: what they mean
A new Rennlister said it would be helpful to have a resource that translated all the acronyms and abbreviations we use on this forum, stuff like lbe and afm.
Let's help out the newbies, and some of the oldies too, by posting as many as we can find.
I'll start off with
LBE--Lindsey Boost Enhancer
AFM--Air Flow Meter
Anyone else?
