I live in a little residential neighborhood. I leave for work and school at around 7:30 everyday. Right around that time, the elememtary school kids are out waiting for the bus.

My car has full 3" exhaust with a resonated midpipe, an just the other day, I tried going nonsequential for a short period.

Well, as I was going to work today, I see this boy (about 6-7) standing on the corner with his dad, right next to a stop sign that I always pass by. The kid was holding his fingers in his ears with a nervous look on his face as I was driving up. I was thinking "Is he doing that because of me?" I looked in the rearview as I drove off, and sure enough, when I got about 100' away, he took his fingers out of his ears. I broke out into laughter right then. I feel so proud.

The older kids always flip out at how cool the car is, but this younger one (probably in 1st or 2nd grade) really was frightened. Just made my day.

i've frightened old people with the TII. that thing is LOOOOOOOOOOUD. i love it. after i put in the second jspec it ran for a week before the water pump decided to lock up and overheat the engine. i raced my friends on the highway...... they said the flame was so big it hit my spoiler in between shifts at high rpm. god i love have ZERO emissions on my TII https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

Ditto. There are times when I wish the FD could flame like an FC. I have a bunch of friends with TII's and the MAF makes those damn things run so rich that when they backfire it sounds like a cannon.

LOL Danny, it's not cool to scare little kids :P



Have you ridden in Steve Fooshee's car when it was running right? ha, going through my neighborhood, is just a trip.

P'cola FD 10-10-2002 08:16 PM

I've ridden behind Steve on the Interstate. There were times when there was a constant flame in his catback. When he ran the car up, and the cannon when off, it shot a huge chunk of carbon out the back.

PistonKilla 10-10-2002 08:22 PM

You should ride with him one day - and him behave when people act stupid. It's a trip. He's my source of entertainment when riding along with him lol

Turbo II 10-10-2002 11:07 PM

in my old starlet, i broke off my exhaust port and it sounded like a ******* chainsaw next to a megaphone. my neighbors hated me

YucA 10-11-2002 09:56 AM

thats another thing i loved bout my 7. that bitch was loud as ****!!! i used to get nasty looks from people on the street all the time. didnt scare many people as they heard it coming from far.



damn i miss that car.

9BASE3 10-11-2002 10:26 AM

I get notes on my windshield almost daily. All of them saying what a beautiful car it is.... Haha. She is SO sexy.



I parked beside a Z06 the other day, and I saw him come out to his car and move like 6 spots over... I wonder if he is a dick... Or doesn't want to look bad?

sullycrx 10-11-2002 10:39 AM

man i hope my **** isnt that loud. i am doing a **** load of stuff and hope that it doesnt sound like a pissed off muthatrucka. i would like to cruise the highwY without having my radio cranked. oh well so is the price for high horsepower and good looks....
