Search doesn't allow 3 letter keywords
I'm having troubles all the time with the forum search. A lot of brands or abbreviation have 3 letters only. So when I search i.e for AVO, or TRD or PVC i won't get any results.
If I combine the words with other words, it doesn't take them into account. So when I search for "TRD spoiler" or "AVO turbo" I'll get a bunch of threads with "spoiler" respectively "turbo". Am I doing something wrong, or is the search just stupid? (it doesn't matter if i add a "+" or "AND" between the words)

Use google to search the topic and add ft86club at the end of the search terms. You will get much better results. So "TRD spoiler ft86club".

I don't think I have ever seen a vBulletin forum that allowed three letter searches. I figure it would crash their software.
