Re: It really is a Jeep thing, but I still don\'t understand...!

One of the guy's on the BC4x4Onelist posted it, and actually thought it was cool? What's even funnier is that I get in an check my emails this morning and another clown actually tried doing it this weekend....."IDIOT"!
Hahahahaha, he actually reported that he found no increase in power or even a change in sound what-so-ever! Duuuuuh, ya think???
It actually brought a tear to my eye, knowing that this individual is on 4x4 websites with us?

Re: It really is a Jeep thing, but I still don\'t understand...!

That's hilarious!!! /wwwthreads_images/icons/cool.gif It's crazy that someone on a 4x4 site actually tried it... /wwwthreads_images/icons/wink.gif Scary is more like it I guess... /wwwthreads_images/icons/wink.gif

How about if we have dual exhausts? Would it give 100hp extra instead of just 50? /wwwthreads_images/icons/wink.gif/wwwthreads_images/icons/laugh.gif/wwwthreads_images/icons/cool.gif

A clicky link of the site Chris mentioned

It's been a while since I've had that beast fired up... /wwwthreads_images/icons/crazy.gif With the price of gas (it needs 93 octane to run good, and that's around $1.70/gal here)(and a good quality tranny rebuild, and just stuff like U joints) I figured it might as well remain parked for a while... Probably going to rebuild the engine as well (if I pass the employment test i'm taking at the end of the month, and get hired), and toss some cool performance stuff in that 454, that way it'll be easier to kill the tranny next time /wwwthreads_images/icons/crazy.gif... /wwwthreads_images/icons/wink.gif/wwwthreads_images/icons/laugh.gif/wwwthreads_images/icons/cool.gif

Have y'all been out 'wheelin lately? Let's hear some stories maybe? I haven't had much of a chance for any wheelin' yet this year... /wwwthreads_images/icons/crazy.gif

DAMN... I've never laughed so hard in my life! And when I read about how another guy actually
tried it... MAN... I HAD TEARS IN MY EYES!

Hey... I Painted "Type R Turbo" on the side of my Path... You know, across the WHOLE side of my truck,
and I experienced some incredible gain in speed, power... hell, I had my tires smoking when I tried to
take it out of the driveway!

That Turbo is one bad *&@**R# *lmfao*

Hahahahahahaha:)
Yep I hear ya, everytime I change shocks or put a decal on my bumper it add's about 60 hp I figure aswell? One frame-twisting power mod you might want to consider is a stick-em air freshner, I'm talking 150 - 175 hp with just one installment. :)

*lmfao* Really... I bet that Air Freshner causes some type of Vacuum to get all that bad air out huh?

Man... there is this car here at work, I'm seriously going to take a picture of this YO-Boy's car on Monday and post it!
But this guy has got a Honda Del Sol, which he has put this ugly ass Whale Fin on the back of...
A fire extinguisher bolted next to the windsheild... a huge single wiper blade which can't fit in the space where the wiper
blade is supposed to fit...
AND OF COURSE.... THE COFFEE CAN MUFFLER!

Better watch out... this guys car is Super Bad! *lmfao*

Re: It really is a Jeep thing, but I still don\'t understand...!

Another great way to increase the ponies is to go down to your Chevy dealer and purchase a 454 SS sticker and slam it on the ol nissan. Off-road performance is increased by buying a Z-71 off road sticker. Or you can buy the stupid looking 4x4 decal. Put all these on together and you get like 100 hp plus you look dang cool J/K

Hahahahaha, those Z-71 454's are about as useless off the lot as their sticker. Chevy actaully govern's those things. Can't remember what the limited top speed is on those, but I've known a few guy's who were very un-impressed?
