I already knew what you were going to say, read my post again.


I'm not that upset that you are using a test pipe, I'm more upset at your mockery of logic.

we can spend the rest of our lives not using test pipes and missing out, just to have a commet hit us at age 50 and wipe everyone out, i say take life for what it is, enjoy everything, and when its all over, it doesnt really matter,
Do you ever plan to have kids? Any neices or nephews? Little brother or sister even?

What about everyone ELSES grandkids? F them right?

Great attitude.

It's not like the benefits of the test pipe are that great. It's not a supercharger. It's a couple of HP at MOST and the weight savings of skipping McD for a month.

Well here is the thing, im 18, make 12.00 and dont have money for a supercharger, so im gonna spend money on cheap mods, even if they are bad.


I could say the same about your logic


There are alot of things worse than my test pipe, its not like i rapped sombody....im putting on a part to my car, maybe if it emitted nerve gas as i drove around i would be different in my opinion.

Im sorry if i offend you, i dont want to be on bad terms, but this is how i feel.

Well, rap music is pretty annoying but I don't think it will kill anyone. So I am not worried about you rapping anyone.

I might be pretty annoyed if you raped someone, but that's totally a different thing.

I am no green-peace hippie, and I think Al Gore is an idiot, but one thing is for sure, there is a reason for emissions testing and the air quality HAS improved drastically since they started doing it. Even with MORE cars on the road.

You should print out your comments in this thread, put the printout in an envelope and lock it away. In about 5-6 years take it out and look at it. You will be embarrassed by your own comments and attitude.

Because it is an attractive, fast, quick, and excellent handling droptop that has decent fuel economy to boot.
