Ahh, can't believe some people these days...
Spotted this lovely piece of machinery in my school's parking lot. Funny thing is, we had to make him a v-band flange for this kid (I'm going to school to be a machinist). This guy is a dumbass, and ricer to the extreme. Take a look...
Thats right, this guy cut two big holes in his hood so he could mount his intercooler core right on the hood, not supported at all. His AFPR is just chillin' right in front of the windsheild as well, inside it sports yellow painted plastic and yellow seat covers, some dangling gauges, an AEM wideband in a faux carbon fiber cluster, and an S-AFC2. I forgot to mention, before the exposed FMIC, he had a horrible home-made cowl hood, he cut 3/4 of the hood out, and made some sort of 6" tall cowl spanning the width of the hood. It was one of the ugliest, ricest, things ever.
When I talked to him when he came to us to make the flange, he sounded really smart. And there is a whole hell of a lot of sarcasm there.

BAHAHA... I guess he wanted a "Top mount intercooler" like a Subaru.

Re: Ahh, can't believe some people these days...
That guy has what is called an advanced sense of humor. If he has all that stuff like the afpr, safc2, wideband, he's not retarded, he just likes to make people go, "wtf?". I wanted to do something kinda like that except it would be a turbo sticking halfway out the hood, not the intercooler.

So to open the hood he has to take the intercooler off?
That car is PIMP.

Re: Ahh, can't believe some people these days...
That twin turbo stang was very thought out. I know it looks stupid and all. But if you read that thread and watch his vid. You think twice about it. I give props to the guy with the flowmaster hat for his carb stang. Crazy build I say.
But for the intercooler sitting on the hood. I am waiting for this guy to get pulled over for it. What a dumb ass.

Re: Ahh, can't believe some people these days...
Oh dear lord. That stang was hideous and I cant imagine those 14b sized turbos are doing much for him. And that saturn is priceless. Oh damn is that sweet. I just wish I knew where to find it, I would definately have to take a couple pictures of that shit.
