    perhaps my wife would be interested.... she's into the whole photography/photoshopping thing, i think she's put out a couple of company logos or something like that before too.... i'll have to try and find some examples of her work.

    I was thinking about using an injector or injectors in the logo? Maybe an over sized injector with the website name in the middle of the injector? Maybe an ECM connected to an injector with a lighting bolt, with the website name on the ECM?

    A flaming Check Engine Light should be installed on all cars from factory for when there is a serious issue! Second stage CEL for high coolant temps, high knock counts, lean conditions etc...

    As amusing as a flamming CEL is, I don't think it would be a good logo for us... that would associate us with flamming CEL issues!

    Greasy fingerprints on a mouse that is a car, with flames from headers, MPFI intake and smoking rear tires would be more like us. Still not sure it would be right...

    I often joke about everything electronic being smoked powered ... once the smoke is released from the electronics ... the power is gone!

    kind of like automatic transmissions... they're filled with 2 things: transmission fluid and magic. if you lose either one, it quits working.

    Well I know for a fact if you open an ECM and the magic smoke comes out it will never work again! Now if you open it and no smoke comes out your good...
