OMG did you LISTEN to that 'cool' sound!!?
I'm sure most people would think you blew a radiator hose!:rolleyes:

I mean at least they could fake the high pitched whine of their girlfriend, oops, I mean turbo!:lol:

And the worst part is the sound happens when you LIFT! so you r buddies can hear the fakeness after you LOOSE! :U

I had seen this before. When I saw the subject of your post, I was going to reply "Yeah, but have you seen THIS" and put your link in there. But you got it - I agree 100% - THIS is definitely the saddest mod I have ever seen. :lol:

I think I just pissed my pants I laughed so hard! :lol:

In true rice fashion, increase HP by adding the weight of useless parts to look and sound cool.

Remember:

Stickers = 50 hp
Big stickers = 100 hp
BIG yellow stickers = 150 hp :crazy:

That's crazy. I think it would be great if it malfunctioned and started going off repeatedly. I can just see some ricer bragging about his POS ride, when it starts going "PSST!! PSSST!!! PSSSTTT!!!!" behind him.

A can of chili and a few beers is much cheaper. And does not require mods. I remember that sound from my university days. And don't flick a Bic.

I don't which is worse- that a company would produce such a product or that the ricers buy them. This sets a new standard for the most useless invention of all time!

I was getting gas one day and a kid pulled his ricer in on the other side. It had low profile tires, scoops, fart pipe, neon, everything but dingleballs- pathetic. He saw me shaking my head, I guess, and asked "Do you like it?" I smiled and said "Nope." and left.

He musta set a speed record paying, cause he caught up with me at the next intersection (red light) and sat next to me. I guess the hamster musta been excited 'cause it sounded like he was racing in the little cage under the hood- pathetic.

When the light changed, he launched that Civic like a turtle with a sore behind. The front end went up and he dribbled away- pathetic. I don't waste my time, tires or licence on these little displays of ego and testosterone. Even so, I drove away from him up to the speed limit. A few seconds (minutes?) later, he passed me and putted off into the sunset- pathetic.

I guess the only things that could made it worse would have been that sound generator- pathetic.

I think that's the saddest part I've ever seen, wouldn't you love to catch someone with that on their car and call them on it. "how much did you spend on that, and it does what?" :lol: :lol:
