Hahahahaha.. yea.. one of my friends put this thing on his geo metro.. its absolutly retarted. It sounds NOTHING like a turbo, it sounds like some sort of a high pitched dog whistle with a veeeery uneven sound (if that makes sence, dont know how to describe). Generally speaking its a device that makes your car sound annoying lol.

All of the sound with none of the speed? What's the point. The things people sell these days.

*sings* blow my whistle b!tch

thats the most retarded thing ever, it probably restricts exhaust flow too.
that is the true definition of 'rice'... getting a part that is simulating something cool just sound you look or sound like you have something you don't... that is rice...
