Default Found a new eBay item for the tc/ any car

Its a turbo sound simulator. It simulates the sound of a turbocharged car. Its like a little wistle you just attach inside the muffler and produces a high pitch sound.

My personal opinion is well, I think its a little too lame. Simulate, and I would assume its above 93db. But it could be cool. If it didnt look so weird and alien inside the muffler. But here is the link and post what you think. Its like 30$ including shipping.

How can anybody be that stupid? hahaahahaa.. I haven't laughed that hard in a while.

For anybody too lazy to follow the link...

IM SO MAD RIGHT NOW
I HAVE A HONDA DEL SOL AND I WANTED TO FIX UP MY BRAKES
I COULDNT GET YOUR STUPID SITE TO LET ME ORDER THE DRILLED BRAKE LINES
SO I TOOK MY DRILL AND COPIED THEM ON MY CAR

THEN I WENT FOR A DRIVE AND THE GOD DAMN CAR WOULDNT STOP

INSURANCE IS GIVING ME CRAP BECAUSE I TOLD THEM WHAT I DID!!!

MY DEL SOL IS TOTALED

I AM ____ED!!!!!!!!!!!!!

the best part everyone just goes along with it and tells him he probably made a mistake by not using a left handed drill bit on the left brake line..
OMFG

yeah.. what tipped me off was the fact that he's arguing that he couldn't buy something from the site... which is what is SUPPOSED to happen.. it's a joke site....

so if he's arguing he couldn't purchase... and he does what he said he did... ... then i think he actually did what i think he did...

the other parts of the forum are just funny and they play around with each other.

Darn. Is it LED blinker fluid at least? I mean, if i'm gonna go through the trouble of changing it I might as well up-grade.
