Default SIDI - How can we make fun of Holden?

I was trying to come up with an acronym for "SIDI" that makes fun of Holden and their lame (and failed) attempt to introduce some modern technology into their engines ...

Anyone have any suggestions?

SIDI is an acronym!

also i wouldn't call it 'failed'. they may not be streets ahead of the competition but they have improved over the old motor. the 3.6L version is also pretty handy in a straight line with very respectable economy.

I think Holden's done a pretty good job of making fun of themselves with their own acronym, 'spark ignition direct injection', spark ignition...?.... they think that's new?

Threads like this lower the collective forum I.Q.

Something similar on a Holden forum would see us call them Bogans.
