RE: [ST] Throttle Body Sync



The CarbTune's big advantage is its use of metal pistons instead of mercury
in the tubes.  Actually there are two advantages.  The obvious one is you
won't turn your garage into a superfund site if you spill the mercury.  Less
well known is the tendency for the mercury to be ingested into the engine if
you snap the throttle closed too quickly from high rpm.
