I think I've found the dumbest most riciest product EVER....
 
This thing is killing me. I'll say this is worse than the windshield washer lights, the tire valve cap lights and even the crappy non-apc altezzas... Worst Part Ever

i have one of those they rock, great sound when ever you want it.

btw, j/k

SuziQ 04-22-2002 06:31 PM

my dad has something similar on his chopper (its not a chopper but its a big bike..maybe a cruiser?). you twists some bolts and the exhaust note changes. its good for when you're in areas with noise restrictions.

Intruder 04-22-2002 06:33 PM

It is also good if you are at the track and want to bypass your entire cat back for more power. Just hook up a y pipe with that thing on the other end, and open it to go wild, hahah. Peace

crazyjetskier 04-22-2002 07:13 PM

bad product but jc whitney is a pretty good company:tup::tdown:

aZnVoYCe 04-22-2002 07:16 PM

Probably you can make a song with that. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/IMG]

fraga 04-22-2002 07:19 PM

So then I should send it back???

mwwhonda 04-22-2002 07:22 PM

why is that such a bad product? you have control over how loud your exhaust is, when you want it........if you want it loud, you open up the valve, if you want it quite, and a lil more low end torque, you close it up...

things ike that are used in domestics all the time

peace

Snowman 04-22-2002 07:56 PM

Actually I wouldn't call that ricey. Really it sounds like a good product. I mean sometimes you just don't want that loud exhaust note and sometimes you do.

xHoteKx 04-22-2002 07:56 PM

wat will they think of next? square tires?

oblivious9 04-22-2002 08:06 PM

Can I get a guage to hook up with that??? [IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]

Wanger 04-22-2002 08:20 PM

how the heck does it work?... i don't see how it can tone down your extaust.... something to do with the trottle?

<< Actually I wouldn't call that ricey. Really it sounds like a good product. I mean sometimes you just don't want that loud exhaust note and sometimes you do. >>



i agree, whats so ricey about that?? if you have respect for others and arent always looking to be mowing the street with your lawnmower, why not? If its 2 in the morning and youre going through a quiet neighborhood, it would be nice to be polite and lower the sound. tell me how the led washer lights are more practical and i will accept this is more ricey than those.

blouisgod 04-22-2002 08:25 PM

[IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG] can that honestly be good for your engine???? :shake::shake::shake:

mwwhonda 04-22-2002 09:10 PM

how can it harm your engine? come on now.....lets think here, all it is doing is restricting or unrestircting exhaust air flow.....think w/ your minds ppl!

Bartkat 04-22-2002 09:12 PM

In the olden days there were exhaust cutouts. Either the exhaust went out the regular pipe or out the side pipe with no muffler or anything. Cost about $10 with a cable and stuff. After you run it for a while the heat freezes the valve and you are stuck with it wherever it was set at the time or you replace your exhaust pipe and throw the gizmo away.

LJ 04-22-2002 09:21 PM

Ok, some people are ignorent, lol. There is somethin exactly like this on the '95 Dodge Stealth TT's. its goes from touring to performance. Its a very good idea, quiets your exhaust when needed!

Bartkat 04-22-2002 09:26 PM

Maybe that's why they call it a stealth.

blouisgod 04-22-2002 09:39 PM

oh my god, i cant believe you guys. that valve goes behind the cat. its different than an open track y. this thing goes right in line with your pipe. now think, your engine even at idle, is constantly putting out gases at an amazing rate. youre gonna put something that blocks those gases from excaping freely. the only thing that dumba$$ thing is gonna do is build more pressure inside your engine, header, and downpipe. over time, that cant be good. simple. real simple. and if you want a quiet exhaust keep your oem. christ.

[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-puke.gif[/IMG] just kidding....[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-puke.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-puke.gif[/IMG]

01BlackEM2 04-23-2002 03:28 PM

What are they gonna come up with next? Seems like everyday theres some new, totally unnecessary product out there. And people actually buy this stuff. I don't understand it. To each's own; I guess... :susp:

Bartkat 04-23-2002 09:34 PM

Do they still sell "exhaust whisltles"?

petOr 04-23-2002 10:36 PM
