How on Earth did this discussion about exhaust tip travesties last this long, and garner this many posts, yet as soon as you bring a legitimately fascinating revelation, about a car that most if not all Jalops care about, to the attention of all these people that allegedly care about this whole issue, no one responds

Yup, just terrible. You should never, ever try one.

Hahaha, nice! I knew I wouldn’t be able to mention the B5 S4 without some ridicule. I will take your humorous jabs in good grace! : )

Hey, fuck you, guy. It was a joke.

I completely agree with all sentiments expressed in the article, as well as in your comments, regarding the idiocy of street racing, but I feel compelled to point out that we seem to be ignoring that there is at least some added rush that street-racing provides over track-racing, which I think also factors into it:

Tavarish, this is superbly written. You managed to get a very important, but oft ignored message across in a fresh and unique way, without alienating those who you were trying to get through to. I always enjoy reading your work, especially when it is about your own personal experiences with a vehicle; but it is posts

More and more manufacturers are feeling compelled to incorporate their insignia into the design of lighting units like that just to make it more difficult for China to blatantly ripoff their designs, or at least so I’ve heard. Apparently, when they weren’t molding their trademark into them, Chinese manufacturers would

Ok, I know I’m a few years late here, but after you brought it up for a second time, I simply couldn’t resist saying this:

Unfortunately, because ‘Murica.

As the owner of a twin-turbocharged, twin-intercooled vehicle (2001 Audi S4 with lots-o-mods), I too, have wondered how much the intercooler(s) can counteract warm intake charge. I am fairly certain that the intercoolers are good for a fixed amount of temperature drop, so even with them in place, the cooler the intake

This is honestly a brilliant idea!

I like to think they were waving their arms in such a manner to get the tractor operator’s attention, not the rally driver’s attention. Not only would this make more sense, given the situation, but it appears that the two bystanders are even looking slightly to the right of the road way, in the direction of the

Thanks for the tip!

Yeah, you clearly know what you are talking about. I am well aware of the (insane) state of the market for Turbos right now. Being the pedant that I am, I simply couldn’t resist pointing out that we don’t know, with complete certainty, that it is a replica. The points you make are sound ones though, and as I said

It is my first! I wasn’t really ready (financially) to get another car, but this particular example was too good of an opportunity to pass up.

Please see my reply to rosslitman. I believe reasonable doubt remains.
