Search Criteria

Is it possible to allow 3 character string searches? e.g. - 'TRD' or 'LCA'.

Would help a lot with searching - especially through vendors. ex. I'm trying to find vendors here that sell TRD parts, but search returns nothing when I type TRD. From past forum moderating experience, it's usually been because the minimum string length for searches is 4+ characters.

+1 on Annahra ^^^. I've learned on every forum the search method sucks, but if you google " TRD site:www.ft86club.com " then the results are way better.

Then the results would be like this

True, I don't use the Google method as much because I like the built-in filters of limiting searches by author, by forum section, etc. I'm not sure how to do that in Google...
