Re: Can't afford a turbo? no problem
I hate those little whistling things. They don't do you any good. My friend Jose put one on his Civic and it was just annoying. You could barely hear it except when you were next to him or he was just pulling away. Late...

Re: Can't afford a turbo? no problem
Yeah, we just get along because of our cars. We actually just thought it would be funny. You should see it. Or hear it for that matter. It gets you some attention. Not good attention I would think, but yeah it was funny. Late...

Goes great with "Faux Intercooler" and "Faux Blow off Valve" And if you have two exhaust pipes, throw in a flame thrower kit, and also some fake Nitrous Purge.

Re: Can't afford a turbo? no problem
Idk. But that :sound turbocharge" thing is stupid. It may sound like a turbo, but it does not go fast like a turbo should.

Yeah, I've seen these before. They are supposed to sound like a turbo while under boost. They also make handy little devices that sound like shift valves.
Pretty sad.
