Angry What is that noise from ricers????

At first I thought "that guys fan is coming off...?".
Then I would hear it on other ricer type cars speeding through school zones at 35 mph....
This has got to be the stoooopidest modification in a real long time,

SO what is that new whirrring noise that idiots are putting on their ricer cars lately???

Something that sounds like a turbo to make others think it has a turbo, maybe?

It's the actual engine whining about how it wanted to be normal, but instead got made into some horrible abomination with subs and amps that are too big to be useful.

HAHAHAHAHAHAH....I found a video of this from a news channel. It's funny as hell when the reporter interviews certain people.

This will apply to most states.....see page 2 last two para's.

http://www.lrc.ky.gov/KRS/189-00/940.PDF#search=%22exhaust%20whistle%22

In other words...for those in the 'video' and not emergency vehicle operators on call or pursuit....it's against the law.....
