i just had a crown vic owner explain to me why his car will beat mine, on to his arguments
1) its a police package
2) it has a upgraded transmission and mine can't take the abuse
3) it has an oil cooler
4) it has a upgraded computer chip.
5) full flowmaster dual exhaust.
i was going to dissect each of what he claims as mods, then i simply said "your right there is nothing you could do to that car that 13 cops haven't done every day for years" his response was "exactly" me: then he was like and my secret weapon he pops his heavy hood and points at a K&N airfilter. my response was "thats your SECRET WEAPON" he was like "this adds like 100 horses and you can hear the engine breath" i asked when he wanted to go to the track and he said thats a waste of time "we could do it hear and now"(pointed to the highway) i said its dangerous and he said "you ain't no real racer then" i was like your right, i only race at the track because i WANT EMS on scene if any thing goes wrong. some people shouldn't be permitted out of the house with out helmets and warning signs......

Wife: You will NEVER drive the car 155 mph.
Me: Too late.
Wife: WHY would you drive the car 155 mph?
Me: Because, it's electronically limited silly.
She was not amused, but I sure was.

Talking to a cowoker/friend about me ripping off a mudflap recently and...
Her: What?? why do you have mudflaps on your car, they like belong on trucks!
Me: Well...they look good, and protect my doors and stuff from rock chips
Her: It still doesn't makes sense
Me: Well, just..because racecar (Actually said that)
Her: *Rolls eyes and walks away*

Last night while cruising around town on my evo with a 2.4L 6765 at 22psi 525awhp and 427tq. Some guy with a cute chik pulls up to me while we are at an intersection. His subs were rattling my car. I waited untill the light turned green. Let him get about a bus length ahead of me and did a WOT pull right by the passenger side were the chik was sitting with her window open. My waste gate is routed to the top of the mesh in the hood so it's *********loud. They pull up at the next light and the cutie goes "you scared the **** out of me with your car". I smiled and replied with " doesn't my music sound better!" and drove off.

Im sure some of you evo guys that came over from the DSM world have heard a few of these before.
"That talon is nice, but the eclipse is faster"
"Yeah I used to have an eclipse. Didn't know the talon was the same. Yeah mine was a twin turbo v6"
"Selling my 95+ eclipse fully built motor, low compression pistons headers, cai, ready for a turbo!!!!" (I allways wonder why people waste 150-200$ on a header and another ~100$ on a cai when they want to go turbo)
"Yeah the talon has better torque split its 30/70" (argh no you idiot they are ALL 50/50.)
I also own an 87 rx7. I love hearing rotary newbs.
Yeah, I wanna go turbo but for now I am just gonna do the intake and exhaust, maybe drop in a set of cams and lifts/rollers.

At a local car meet my friend standing in front of my parked car says: "Are those the springs in the intercooler?"
Everyone in our group walked away facing the ground nodding their heads lol.

Today a co-worker notices that my car is not there.
I tell him its in the shop, getting a new motor.
Him: ohh... interesting, which motor are you getting?
Me: which one?
Him: yeah! are you going to get the bigger one? the 2.5 liter? it makes much more power than the normal one.
Me: ......nope. just the normal one.....
Him: dang dude. could have been super fast!
Me: ...yep.
