Default Tonight was full of confusion....

A mexican-japanese guy with a pheonix yellow type r, with g racing kobe wheels SPRAY painted black done very poorly, Z3 fenders, poo pooy front lip, 21 (I actually counted!) gauges, and euros. Now, for the weird part, he had a Jackson Racing Supercharger with a 20lb pulley, mugen header and exhaust and even some spoon products....I know, supercharger isn't that great, but it was just weird to me that he spent a lot of money making such a nice car look like poo poo. Oh well.... The next story is my friends and I were sitting by my car, and these guys come over and ask me if I made my carbon fiber hood. Wow, I was shocked...I just told them it was a VIS hood and laughed my *** off when they left. Third story, I see a 2001 black type r driving around with the car all dirty and a dog in the passenger seat (don't ask). Well, we took off at the light and he almost got hit...we slowed down, waited for the next one. I pulled about 1.5 cars on him(anti-street racers, don't flame). Crazy night for me I guess. Sorry to bore you guys, but I just had to let it out.

Nothing wrong with superchargers as long as they are set up right. Friend has a 94 GSR, JR supercharger, 9lb endyn pully, J&S safeguard, 310 rc injecters, cartech FMU, kamakazi header (2.5 collector) RM exhaust, ITR exhaust cam, cam gears, 9200 limiter, Runs 13.1 at 102mph at palmdale all night long, corrected for altitude is 12.7 at 107mph (2500ft). Not to bad for a supercharged full body integra, oh btw he ways 250lbs to boot. Smog legal outside the kamakazi header.

Wouldn't a 20 lb pulley be about the size of a Hotwheels car wheel?

Should have asked him if a 20 lb pulley wasn't too heavy and why he didn't get a lighter one?

Probably could've told him that Unorthodox makes a 3 lb pulley for his Supercharger and left him really confused.
