I was talking to this guy between classes tonight about cars. He wants to buy a nitrous kit from me so I let the fact that he is a total ricer slide this time.
Anyways, he has a civic and he was like "yeah i got modz" so i asked him what he was running. He told me he just got this cool supercharger from his friend for 250.00 and it was such a good deal and everything, but superchargers dont put out much power so he wanted n2o or "nosssssssssss" as he called it.
I was thinking to myself... Ive seen m90's go that cheap with high miles on them, but even those usually go for more than 250, so he has me interested. I was thinking at 250 maybe he was sold a junker because he should feel the boost of a supercharger without doubt. I ask him to show it to me later that night and after class we go pop his hood.
HE HAS A FRIGGIN TORNADO!!!! I had to try so hard not to die of laughter. A few spurts and giggles got out and I got the pleasure of explaining to him that he had a piece of junk obstructing his airflow.
Needless to say, he was royally pissed LOL Hopefully he will still buy a kit from me!!
OH MY GOD! That's the funniest shiznit that I've heard in a LONG TIME! $250 bucks!? Is he insane!? What kind of a car does he drive? That is SO funny, dude it looks like you really need to talk some since into him before he totally loses it! I'd show him the ropes so he doesnt look as stupid to someone else! Har! Har! Har!

A tornado is this circular piece of THIN aSS Tin can material, with a swerll in the center , which is supposed to spin or circluate the in coming air better .. BS BS BS .. Even tough the theroy is good , u Really shouldn't have anything in there to obstruct the air .
