Re: What do our usernames mean?!

Uncle Meat was a proposed film by frank Zappa, a mix of science fiction and road stories inspired by the band's sexual escapades. It was never properly finished at the time as a film but the music was released as the album '''Unclemeat''' ..the 72 is my birth year..

no silencer

Can anyone enlighten me please? Will a 1.8t 20v's fuel economy be affected by having no silencer on the exhaust? Also how will this affect the turbo's performance? I know obviously it will be loud but just wondering about these points.
Cheers
