Oh man! Get your Turbo only $20.50!

Post by NY Pete »

Haha... I'm sorry if somebody already posted this, but you've got to see it - a whistle that mounts inside your tailpipe...! What will they think of next (yes, I've seen the underhood speaker that makes a blow-off noise)... http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...42610 Pete

LOL, I been seeing more and more sewer pipe's in town now. All they need now is one of these. Installation:Remove the aluminum device from the package. Tighten down the whistle portion of the device and make sure everything is secured. Place the aluminum device insert into the stock muffler pipe. Tighten the bottom bolt onto the muffler pipe. Have yourself a glass of Kool-Aid. Smile! Test drive!!

Why spend the 20.50? You can go to a dollar store and get a kazoo for a buck. Silly ricers...

Wow....that's odd....its got to restrict the exhaust flow and althouigh I don't know what that could do to ones car I can't imagine that it would be good....plus it looks like something that is eventually bound to fly off and cause a hazard.....I wouldn't touch one with a ten foot pole.....

LOL. This was posted before a while back. They call it a "whistle tip". Someone posted a link to a TV news channel website in Oakland, California. So many people were complaining about the God-awful noise that they make that the city of Oakland was considering a ban on them. The news piece was hysterical with the morons they interviewed who had this done to their car. I'll see if I can find it.

ohmigod, there it is! That news piece made that guy like a pop culture icon or something. There is soooo much stuff on the 'net about him. Still makes me laugh. Only in LA.

one of the funniest things i have seen was at wal-mart while i was waiting to get my tires put on. they have air fresheners that look like little tweeters that go on the door, similar to the vibes real ones. that is the stupid. very f*cking stupid.

LOL. Such a rampage would significantly increase the average IQ score of our society. I vote to look the other way while you do it.
