when you first started the car, I thought I heard a siren from a police car... then I realized it was the turbo whine.... cool.

Try driving through street with lots of turns with one hand on the steering and the other hand with a camera... I think consuming ginger will stop motion sickness. :D

Yes, i am able to beat a stock N/A 4 banger gasser or V6 that has engine problems or a v8 with REALLY bad transmission i mean REALLY BAD (a non functioning tranny :D)

Only cost me $100 with no tax no return no recipt no warranty

and there is a layer of soot on my bumper

Mine sounds very similar to that. :D The turbo spooling is awesome. :D

Mine cost $0 because I went back to Lentz to complain at the restrictive exhaust they had put on 6 months earlier....and said if they put a straight pipe I'd be fine with that. (which was obviously cheaper for them) so they whipped one up in 15 mins....and I was on my way. :D

OK, somebody remind me again: why does a turbo sound cool exactly. Because it whirs? No wonder I hate the rogue "T".
It appeared as though you were driving on the planet Crematoria from The Chronicles of Riddick......:cool:
You have a dash mounted gauge in an S-class Mercedes??? Dude.......:rolleyes::rolleyes:
Straight pipes I guess are fine if you just want noise, but can't it look cleaner coming out the back and less like a plumber did it?

The dash mounted guage is soooo cheeesy! LOL!

pawoSD 03-04-2009 01:40 AM

Mine sticks straight out the back in a similar way.....oh well. :D

I would have preferred it to have been bent a little more precisely....but it was free so I can't complain much.

Dash mounted gauges looked great in "Back to the future"



I'm just sayin....



I do agree that a down turned end pipe or something that looked less like Larry the cable guy installed it would befitting of a MB....
