EBay is not helping the situation at all.  I won&#8217;t buy anything, but I could be spending my time more productively than just browsing around the site for as long as I do.  There is just something immensely appealing about the ability to plug in a piggyback fuel computer to recalibrate the fuel curve, and have a digital readout in the passenger comparment of the vital functions of the engine.
