Here's something I've never understood about people who "tune" Hondas and Toyotas: Both automakers seem to go out of their way to make some of the quietest, smoothest running 4 cylinder engines on the planet...and then some idiot tacks a bunch of expensive shit on to one to make it sound loud and raucous. It doesn't sound cool at all, not even close. A V8 or even a V6 engine sounds far cooler than the booming baritone fart sound of these tuned 4 cylinders. This is so incredibly lame.

They should have routed the exhaust into the cabin, not the intake. WTF, those kids planning on entering that thing in a desert off road race, or crossing deep water.

Especially when kids get the ridiculous bolt on spoilers, body kits, etc. The car not modded usually looks like crap, and the modded stuff does not make your 10 year old civic look or go better. I can attest to smoking one of these things in my grandfathers old Chevy lumina a while back. I can’t understand for the life of me the appeal of driving a leaf-blower.

His idea to cut out the middle man of exhaust driven turbos and to directly inject exhaust gasses in to the combustion chamber is classic hall of fame material.

But that aside, I think it's genius that they have found the ultimate cold air intake - turn on the a/c and run it from the vent into the intake - I'd bet it makes another 50whp.

Other people enjoy the art & passion of automobiles. I find it somewhat annoying that we're linking to this asinine, content-less video; also, it isn't really newsworthy to report that neanderthals make car videos too.
