But...but...They wanna drop their clutch at 5k rpm! Why shouldn’t they be allowed to? They’ll be the lucky one whose transmission survives it!

“You can’t put headers on a jaguar V12. When the valves close the exhaust will explode.”

The Subaru shit that has become widely and blindly accepted as fact is insane. Ask 99.9% of Subaru drivers why the 5-speed likes to break so much, and you’ll get a nice slew of inane responses.

“Your Saab has a turbo? You need a turbo timer to make it go faster.” is something I’ve heard way more than I should have. This image best represents my reaction at this point.

That ridiculous story about the WRX-bro that saved his friends’ lives with a Stage II turbo and a Cobb short-throw shifter.

Apparently neither Paul nor Doug have had the rubber part of a wiper blade torn off due to being frozen to the windshield.

Kinja?

How about storing an umbrella in the “fishing pole holder” in a Powell?

Regular 😔

Usually they work like a lightened flywheel....quicker revs....I never knew it was a thing that these increase any kind of power.

It should be noted that it’s only on the SOHC normally aspirated models due to a single layer graphite coated head gasket design that flaked and corroded over time and failed. Turbo models use multi-layer steel gaskets that hold up much longer than the piston ring-lands and rod bearings do in boosted versions ;-)

Jalops be like “PART IT OUT!”

Tyler, thank you for your sensible, not sensationalist, reporting!

Ironically, the head gasket was still intact at the end.

Still an inferior product to this:

Attention all manufacturers of stuff that sprays out of a can (Cheez Wiz? Sure.): do this.

Please, KEEP TRYING.
