Correct me if im wrong,I think is was +15hp im not sure. A buddy of mine dynd his Toyota Hybrid and got 124rwhp. Then the guys at HKS installed the Turbo Whistler and we made 139rwhp. Pretty impressive if you ask me.

Do you think if you put it on, it will cover the sound of the spooling so everyone thinks a turbo car is stock? It could be the next sleeper part!

If you mounted it in a very obvious manner on the exhaust, so someone coming up from behind you could see it, they would think you were a total poser, which would add to the sleeper effect

Bubb Rubb... Can't get over it. That video made me laugh to no end when it first came out.

Yeah? Well my friend owns one of the fastest street ridden motorcycles in the US and its NOT an automatic.. what do you think about that? HMM??? Auto Fun. Any ***** can push the accelerator, it takes skill and speed to powershift a standard transmission in a race.

While I think about it, what does top speed have **** to do with the transmission? Top speed = top gear, there shouldn't be any shifting once you reached the top gear.. unless its like one of those 9 speed jobbies off 2gay2homo movies..

*shrug* I know a guy whos running in the 9s consistent with a 6 speed supra. This guy, I actually know.. And hes a douche, but he can drive.



Thats his car, thats him driving it. Front mount, T78, drag radials. Driven to the track, then home from the track -- No cage. Hes very proud to be one of the quickest supras with a 6 speed, and still is a douche. That video was here at KCIR, which is one of the worst tracks I've ever seen.

Yep. This track when you break 11.99 they'll boot your ***. He refuses to put a cage in the car because he seems to think its some sort of Lexus luxury sedan or something, heaven forbid he disrupt the luxury of the car he never drives for something so silly like, hahahahaha, a safety cage??

Hes a douche. Talks emense amounts of **** (like, 100 times more than me!) to anyones face and advertises himself even more than the gay real estate jerkoff Scott just banned..
