Unbelievable Fail.

http://www.cobaltss.net/forums/showthread.php?t=118899

Basically, the guy thinks that the motor spins in reverse when you want to get the car to go in reverse.

The next fast and the furious better cover this topic.

Enjoy the laugh.

Re: Unbelievable Fail.

He's joking. He comes in later and talks about experimenting with a balloon on his exhaust. That's after everyone else explains everything to him. Definitely a joke.

Re: Unbelievable Fail.

sweet. I need to go by a exhaust bypass valve so i can boost like mad tyte in reverse!

geez, you guys post quickly, I was busy running an experiment to try to figure this out for myself

I was thinking "how can you prove that the engine is running backwards" when it hit me, I can use a balloon. So I got a balloon and put it around the exhaust tip. I figured when I start the car it will inflate, but when I put it in reverse it will suck the air and balloon back in. So I started the car up and went in reverse about 10 feet then turned the car off. I went and checked the tail pipe and sure enough there was no balloon, it got sucked inside the tail pipe. So I got back in the car, started it up and drove forward about 5 feet. I got out and looked on the ground and the balloon was right behind the tip. So when I pulled forward it shot the balloon that was in the exhaust back out and thats why it was on the ground.

So yea, engine runs in reverse in reverse, now I just need to do it again and see if I get full boost


Makes perfect sense!

Re: Unbelievable Fail.

That's about what I'd expect from a Cavalier forum. Kinda like Tunerz about five years ago.

Re: Unbelievable Fail.

I wonder how many times the word "Epic" was used in that thread?

About as many times as this loser at work says it, along with fail.

Re: Unbelievable Fail.

hahahahahahahahaha He's saying that shit to be stupid, or as a joke right? I mean he's kidding right lol

wow, lots of replies already, thanks guys

Real reason I'm asking because a friend is getting a 93 Corvette and he wants to race me. I said we can race to 30 mph because I think if I go from reverse I'll get better weight transfer and beat him, but I'm concerned about making full boost since the turbocharger will be spinning backwards.

I'v heard some pretty crazy shit, but this might be the stupidest fuckin thing I've ever heard lol what a troll
