The following thread is a sticky in each generation Tech/Performance forum:

The Tech Tips section once available has not been accessible for updates for quite some time because the software used to create the material is no longer supported and is not compatible with the vBulletin software that runs the Forum.

It’s on a long list of “to-do” items to try and resurrect the section, but has not made it to the top of the priority list as yet. Meanwhile, Forum member C4Cruiser located the following links that allow viewing of the old tech tips and recommended that we share the links with others who might be interested in accessing them.

If you want to post newer tech tips, please post a link to them in this thread. If you know of other tech tips already posted, post a link here to them as well. That should make the task of getting the Tech Tips on track much easier when we get the necessary window of opportunity to make it happen.

Thanks.

It's because the above post was copy/pasted, which resulted in the links getting shortened and corrupt. Here's the original:

J T is correct. I copied the post and that corrupted the links. However, the original post is a sticky in each Performance/Tech section.
