I've been using the advanced search on Google to search this site.
In the advanced Google search, just specify to search within the domain; www.screamandfly.com
I just tried mad efi there and it found 6,260 results

Not to get to technical, but I think version 4 of Vbulletin (the software used for the forums) has a default minimum word length of 4 characters for searches, so the term "mad efi" isn't going to return any results..

It can be changed, but it's up to Greg to do it..
