Those guys are just freakin' pathetic. It's sad to see a bunch of idiots chop up a crap car just to get it as fast as our turbos. If we did that to our cars, we would get in low 12's!

I really like this statement:

The most obvious free horsepower mod is to remove the exhaust. This makes the engine extremely loud and, as you know, noise equals power.

I think the ricers (and maybe a few PT owners got that one fixed into their brains!

I that it was actually a pretty nice looking car from start. Remember I own a 95 Sentra too. But to chop is to stop, in the junkyard.

[SuGamer]

I apologize. I didn't really mean the sentra was a piece of crap, just nowhere near a fast or performance geared car. Then again, it may be a piece of crap compare to our cruisers. Just joking![)][8)]

That's a riot.

I recall Hot Rod doing the same thing with a mid-70's or so Cadillac. By the time they stripped it down it was like 13s or something. It started in the high 18s or so.


I love how they are making fun of all the posers in the rice car clubs.

I'll bet those guys had lots of fun.
"Next, in the grand Pontiac tradition, we fashioned a ram-air intake by removing the bottom half of the air filter box, taping the filter into the upper half, and sticking the whole thing up into the airflow."
