I don't run one today, but I might really soon if I'm convinced it will reduce the drone from my 70MM single.

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.
So do it and stop talking about it It's not the fact that your doing it that is offensive. It's the justifications that are offensive.
BTW, A testpipe is almost useless without the rest of the system as well. A new exhaust system from headers on back will give some nice gains with a TP. But a TP by itself will be on the edge of noticiable.

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.
woah woah woah. Just because your 18 and make 12.00 an hour doesn't mean that you can't afford a supercharger. I'm 18 and make 10.00 on weekdays and 7 on weekends, and I'm saving for a turbo (think 10G's). Will I get it next week? HELL NO. how about next month? HELL NO. maybe in a year will I be able to afford it. Your just impatiant and/or bad with money.

Turbo's can be tuned to run cleanly, and mine will be. Hell they can even run on the E85 stuff.

I'm going to have kids and I want them to have a hospitable planet to have a great life on. Thanks for helping me with that. I agree that other people are doing other things that arn't helping but your '**** everyone for my own enjoyment attitude' is extreemly rude and unappreciated.

Be offended if you will, but it'll just make you look foolish.
