And I am willing to let all of that foolishness drop; there are assholes everywhere. But in that thread there was a lot of misinformation and people making comments about the superiority of flow flow systems that flies completely in the face of years of test results and (more importantly) laws of physics.

I DO tend to hold grudges and am quick to disregard entire forums worth of people as being a waste of my time. But in this case it seems to me that some good for everyone could come out of this. Let the people who are making the claims about low flow/small tubing systems come forward, make their statements in a more permanent way (a website article) and defend them. Let's DO IT

Here is what I posted in your forum:

"As a forum I propose that you draft up a statement about the superiority of low flow/small tubing. I will write an article detailing why, for a given cooling system, that using lower resistance fittings and hose (proper plumbing and bigger tubing) will always result in either the same or improved performance.

To put it simply, for a given set of parts: smaller tubing is at BEST similar in performance and at worst it performs quite a bit worse.

I am quite eager to see the math on how you can improve cooling by using more restrictive tubing and fittings."

I really do wish you'd leave that thread up and just close it. The inaccuracies are what I am more interested in than the personal attacks (I have thick skin and can take it).
