when i was driving with my girlfriend, she was all pissy because it was "too loud". but i made her laugh by driving past someone jogging, spooled the turbo, let off the gas, and the guy ducked. ROFL

i will have WAY to much fun with this. also, it backfires like a mother.

it should come with a plug you put in.

if you didn't you're getting an insane amount of unmetered air into the engine...big no no.
