I Hate Ricers
So im talking to one of my friends, hes saying hes getting an exhaust, its gonna add about 10-15 horse power.. so i ask him, which exhaust is it? he said ohh its an N1 "Style" im geting it for 30 bux off of ebay. SO i asked, is it a catback? he said no, its a weld on, he seems to think because the back end is huge, its gonna add ALL that horse power, doesnt seem to understand he needs bigger pipes for more airflow, more horse power.
ohh and by the way, the intake hes getting adds 25 hp on average
EDIT: Sucks to get owned

not really..........unless you are boosted or have a extremely built more this is not always true.
Heat = energy and the bigger the pipes, the faster the exhaust gases cool which results in a loss of hp.

Rep Power: 346 There should be a printout or something that states what actually helps and doesn't help on cars... I mean, I overheard a guy saying he's going to get some "light weight dubs" on his car... that's oxymoronic, and just plain stupid.

this some funny s*** but...........
Big Wings+Civics= slower dumb looking car
Turbo+Stock Look= People crying when they get bet
lol lol lol lol
i don't have a turbo or wing don't want one but mabye a Terminator 3 Spoiler but not a Space Ship wing. Anyway i think that it is stupid but getting bolt exhaust is not go to give you 10-15 mabye he was high or something when he read it but he may get 3-4 Hp but you get more about of cat-back

Physics OWNS!!!!
The hotter the exaust gasses are, the less energy it takes to push them through the pipe... = Less power lost from parisitic drag....
