Hey guys, EVERYONE HAS TO WATCH THIS!

Hey guys, my friend pointed this video out to me on youtube. Its a video of your average ricer moron pretending to be knowledgable about cars.

I can't even explain what to start on this video. It is the WORST mod video I have ever seen on you tube. Its hilarious because he passes his ignorance off as intelligence, and pretends to be an experienced technician.

A MUST SEE!

Re: Hey guys, EVERYONE HAS TO WATCH THIS!

For his next video, we learn how to get another 20-30 HP by putting in a true dual exhaust and in the project room his good friend Shady Pete will show you how Nitrogen in your tires can up to 18 HP!

Re: Hey guys, EVERYONE HAS TO WATCH THIS!

I couldn't watch it all. But I am getting ideals for the Caprice. It looks like the filter on the ford is just sitting there with aluminum foil wrapped around it.

Kind of funny. Another forum was talking about cold air intakes.

Re: Hey guys, EVERYONE HAS TO WATCH THIS!

The foil tape on the heat shield reflects light better and makes a cooler engine...

"The cold air has a lot more kick to it"...

"Watch the gradual acceleration now, just watch how it naturally drives now just kinda cruises along, it's beautiful"...

um, it's a Grand Marquis, they do that

I wouldn't say this dude was totally stupid, but he doesn't exactly know what he's talking about

Absolutely no doubt about that. But you wouldn't post something with spurious claims like that on Youtube.

When I was in High School I too knew tons more on my areas of interest than most adults did. I guess what I was referring to was my lack of experience, money and proper tools to get the job done. These constraints were often overcome by my enthusiasm and ingenuity - but not always... Anyways, I learned what I know today because I tried a lot of cockamanie things back in the day - and I'm confident that you will too.

Re: Hey guys, EVERYONE HAS TO WATCH THIS!

Oh man thats good.
I remember doing something like this for my friends Taurus. He was taking dryer ducting and connecting it do the air box, and putting it all together with glue.
I tried to have as little to do with it as possible.
That one picture in this thead with the dryer ducting is a car like my Caprice, and a lot of guys do that. Its better then stock...
