Heat crazed mad scientist

[Kelly Parker]

I had heard from lots of people that they don't do any good. I've also heard 
from a few people that porting your maf doesnt really help

Thats not the point.

I'm tryibg to
1)learn plastic injection molding by building something fun.
2)Maybe make a buck or two. ;)

thanks though,
Kelly
