Hey you... (muffler)

[aquajet]

Let's not drag VW's into this.........

My VW is slow and quiet. But that's okay because I don't try to turn it into something it isn't. It is what it is, so to speak.

It does handle fairly well, however. And that's more important to me than brute go-fast-ness.

All of you that do this to your cars and go rodding down the street making an assload of noise should be hung.

</rant>

Always look to me like the cars got @$$-raped by an elephant.

Now that being said by doing things to the exhaust system you can get a substantial increase in power. Most of the things to get the increase though are illegal. (removing the emissions control is #1)

How is making loud, irritating, noise cool?

On bikes, yes. But how hard is it to see a ****ing car?! Especially one with a huge shopping cart handle on the back, and a thousand "bling" accessories?

There are few of the modded cars around here, but I wish I could hire a brass band to every night of the week walk into the bedrooms of the people with bikes that sound like serial explosions.

Even Pixar made fun of these people:

I call them picnic benches.

Heh, try listening to the Bousozoku over here in Japan. They drive around in the middle of the night on their motorcycles making noise by driving about 10 Kilometers/Hour while revving their engines. Of course they have the loud mufflers installed which makes it even worse.

hahahahah. thank you

All these tricked out, pimped out, maxed out cars are a heap of annoying junk.
It's also sad that Mtv's Pimp my ride was such a huge hit. Now people think its cool again to ruin your car with useless flames and airvents.

iGary, I agree with you 100%. If there was a simple law in this country making it illegal to alter a vehicle from its factory form, we wouldn't have to listen to this.

That law would ****ing suck.




Also, dual exhaust pipes on an INLINE FOUR CYLINDER ENGINE is STUPID!
And regarding his bumper sticker, while accurate, it also applies to his car.

Don't worry, I'm only a communist when it comes to cars.

My car's a 4cyl and came with dual exhaust stock from the factory. I'm not complaining, it makes the car look better IMO, so it's not stupid. Now if the car has a single exhaust stock and you put dual fart cans on, then yes, that's pretty stupid.

I think Harley's could also be included in this list. Some of their bikes make so much noise I feel like I'm entering a rifle range without wearing ear plugs when they pass by.

And lest we forget Bubb Rubb and the infamous car whistle.

Agreed. There's one this I hate more than beat up Honda's with coffee can exhausts... and thats Harley's with straight pipes.

I agree. In fact, they are the worst offenders the last few days.

 

[floriflee]

Makes me glad that we don't live in South Dakota or anywhere near Sturges.

 

[SpookTheHamster]

Why the hell would anyone want their car to whistle?!

I'm glad THAT hasn't made it across the pond.

Don't get me started on Harleys.

It is hilarious!

edit:

I actually like the sound of Harley Davidson's... IF... they have their stock pipes on with mufflers.
