LOL!!! Calton, what is this your 3rd or 4th brush with law enforcement since you've gotten your car??? Did you factor in potential $$$ for fines and/or a good lawyer to fight tickets?

Yeah, it's getting up there. I should have my car remapped whereby, the speed governor will be adjusted from 155 DOWN to 55. Hahahaha! That would be funny.
Don't laugh. Read online today that Ford has a new Smart Key system for parents who have teenage drivers. Using that specific key for the car actually does set a speed governor for 80mph and a more annoying seatbelt chime and a fuel light that goes on sooner...

He was cool though. I asked him what he thought of the new RDSport Spoiler and the carbon fiber accents. He liked it. We connected. Hahahahaha! Just kidding. I didn't ask him that crap.

C, you should be locked up. And I'd rather get the moving violations and go to traffic school than to put holes in my front bumper for the lic plate. Do you have someone to write it off or are you going to secure it to the lower grill with zip ties?
Fafafoooey,
The underdrive pulley reduces parasitic losses to your power from engine to the wheels that occur when some of that power is being used to power your accessories like water pump, AC, power steering..etc... It doesn't give you more power but it frees up more power to go to the wheels.
