:lol: AH HA!! OH MY ! Im frikkin dying here!! :smt005 :smt043

there is not a smillie to express what i am feeling right now!

i didnt think he was going to respond, out of shear embarrassment but keep reading through it
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.

He's an established member of that forum, judging from his post count. I would be 90% sure it was a joke. Maybe he heard of someone else asking a similar question, and made it his own to get a good laugh.

Anyone got a part number on that "exhausting intake bypass valve"? :D

Certainly got a reaction... almost as good as the "exhaust directly into the intake" mod

And I thought I was stupid for believing that Slick50 would make my old Jetta run better.

Didn't read the whole thing, but seeing his oblivious reply, I'd have to say it's gotta be a joke. Reminds me of some guy in an S2000 forum who tapped nitrous into the valve cover then asked why it wasn't working.

i kept reading it to page like 13 and one guys says that it is a joke and then he says mustangs rule and then they start a fight about you should kill your self, however it is still funny that someone could think of that.so since i have a 4'' exhaust i can get maximum intake sweet :-D
