Default I scare you with my turbo (sound)

The ultimate poser accessory, this will undoubtedly get you as much HP gain as a real turbo, and at a fraction of the price ($304)!!!!

Is this legal for ECHC??

people actually ask me whether or not I have one of those things!

I would stand in a corner and shoot myself if I saw somebody have that or even have that fake intercooler piping kit!

later and drive safe,

you bet I'm hooked!

I ordered my helmet today, and my parents got me some books that teach you how to race in autocross as a gift!

I tell everybody that I went autocrossing and they all look at me weird.

I just tell them that this is REAL racing!

later man,

aj

I also put my rims on eBay so I can hopefully get some Kosei K1's wrapped in some Khumo's.

That thing is hilarious. Rumor has it that the same manufacturer is at work to develop the famed "chirp" modulator so that every time you upshift it'll sound like you're getting rubber in all 4, 5, or 6 gears!

The sound of the "chirp emulator" will be equally as weak as that emitted by the NA Blowoff Valve... ie, they will use an amplified mouse squeak.

Chris, who always did want to challenge someone to a stoplight drag and start playing the '94ish Ferrari V12 out the windows reeeeally loud from his "Sounds of F1" CD.

did someone say "chirp emulator"? Didn't we have a really good techinical discussion about chirp technology a while back? .... bring back the chirp post!...LOL

As far as noises go, I know a new one I like (and that is really functional)...it's a K&N FIPK in my '98 Toyota Tacoma. Start the truck, take off in first and shift to second around 15mph...then floor it. Makes an AEM CAI seem like a screaming baby compared with the K&N FIPK growling dog. Kind of reminds me of the sound a Trans AM racecar would make...that kind of rumble. Now I can't wait to put on the Gibson SS exhaust system to go with it... I bet it will sound better than those fake BOV turbo kits...lol

When are they going to release a "fake Vtec" noise module for non-vtec models?

LOL...to me, the way you OnomonaPIAA'd ( ) it makes it sound like someone is having a "gas attack" while on a bike. I guess the bell is a warning of the impending gas attack?

Basically...This is about as stupid as hooking up a scuba tank to your engine instead of buying an N20 kit and a propane tank to your exhaust to get that F&F flame look.
