Lol, Jesus. 

It makes me wonder though, how many of these cars around here actually have an FI system or that rape whistle installed.  Hmmm....

[Ghoste]

Too much.  I do have to hand it to the guy who thought the thing up though.

[Charger-Bodie]

I think it would be fun to get a bunch of those and secretly install then on a bunch of buddies cars and see who figures it out first.

[tan top]

cool , going to fit one to the charger

*tosses RD's Christmas present in the trash*

Man, I thought you'd get a kick out of it.

This is probably obvious but I think anything with the word "fake" in the description should be avoided.

Well Bull, the problem lies herein with leaving that one KEY word out...Some dumbazz will inevidably want his/her money back when he/she installs that thing on their vehicle (Submit make of choice here), and it didn't provide any boost like a real turbo would...

You wouldn't believe how many thought that the first F&F '70 Charger ACTUALLY HAD a blown HEMI in it..It wasn't until it came up for sale on the bay that the Blower was ahem........"Fake"...And the engine in the car was Ahem, a 440....

Judging from the price reduction, demand hasn't been quite what they expected. 

[mauve66]

i would sue for false advertising, it may sound like the car has a turbo but they say it sounds like a blow off valve, the blow off valve is in between shifts on a stick and this is directly related to engine RPM on that video

[BigBlackDodge]

Not only is it stupid, it obstructs the flow of exhaust.


BBD

[Todd Wilson]

I wonder if it would work on my old 1947 truck!HAHA!

[Charger_Croatia]

Maybe it could be nice "upgrade" my 400 for cheap.

You've got nerves of steel if you were able to actually watch that video...

[mauve66]

i always laugh at these things, like one i saw comparing a hyundai or something with a turbo on it and a huge hole cut in the hood and a gutted interior to a fully loaded SRT10 Ram, talk about prunes to pineapples,  or the guys that used a leaf blower to force air into an intake while on a dyno to improve the HP

ya gotta wonder at people who think this stuff up

[RD]

...or the guys that used a leaf blower to force air into an intake while on a dyno to improve the HP

did it work? 


hehe j/k

Sure it did, but if you were to implement it for the street, the weight of the guy sitting sitting in your engine bay pointing the leaf blower in to the intake would offset and hp gains.

and the aero drag coefficient

Good point - the hood would up... or gone.. 

[squeakfinder]

I wonder if that seller has a line on one of those fake Dana 60 covers for

an 8 3/4. 

[mauve66]

i was thinking of the big fat guy sitting on the hood
