Ok so some of us are new and some of us are old but there are a lot of terms thrown around on this forum that I have yet to learn, some I have learned by myself but I thought this would be informative to others. Anyway let the list begin.

CAI = cold air intake
OEM = original equipment manufacturer
JDM = japanese domestic market
REVI = product name by racing beat (intake)
RB = racing beat
MS = mazdaspeed
HU = stero head unit
WOT = wide open throttle
SOLO2 or Auto Cross = an event at which you get to take your car and run it in a controlled enviroment

FD = 3rd gen RX-7
FC = 2nd gen RX-7
FB = 1st gen RX-7

I hope I got them all right, please feel free to add to the list!
(sig removed, I would rather get automotive information then criticism)

zoom44 already did this in the FAQ-update. Maybe he can add any new ones to it.
