    Default Full of it?

    A friend of my states that the exhaust he got put on his car (just exhaust, no extractors) has boosted his VS Commodore II engine output from 157 (wtf?) to 175kw. How can an exhaust increase engine output from 157 to 175kw? I didn't think it could (without extractors anyway). What a load of crap. For a start, he hasn't had it dynoed (sic) and the VS never had 157kw in the first place!!! Man I hate it when people say shit like that, I even corrected him re. the 157kw and he didn't like it.....

    He probably thinks it's 157/175kw from the wheels too, not the flywheel (********).

    Comments?

    He does tend to exaggerate a little (or a lot), but I think that he talks shit because he knows shit mainly. He didn't even know what extractors were when we were talking about them.

    Seriously though, from a theoretical 147kw, how many more kw would the typical 2.5 inch exhaust get?

    175? HAHAHAHAHA

    Yeah, you feel that YOU'RE the best in the world, has nothing to do with how the car magically has 20kw more.

    Default wobble valve!

    thats because IT DOSNT EXIST!!! lol
    We do it to the new apprentices's at work, or if some idiot is torking shit, just ask them about anything, then add on if it needed a "wobble valve" at all. I even got you lol! oh mate, everybody should do it.
    We had a bloke waste half an hour looking for the wobble valve on a throttle body and after pissing our selves laughing (behind his back) i broke the devastating news to him. I wonder why he got a transfer 2 weeks after that?

    Shit I was worried there lol, just as well I didn't make some shit up about it then. What if I did ask him if he needed a wobble valve, but then he asks me what it is?

    Wait he could be right...... When you said new exhaust did you mean he took the exhaust off complety, and who knows maybe his running straight NOS (provided his fully sick subwoofers arnt in the way of the bottles).


    BTW no angry replys guys, its sarcasm

    I drilled holes in mine, and it's got an extra 100kw, at the wheels. Serious. You can actually get more power from drilling holes in your muffler that any other mod, including forced induction, wheels, stickers, even a 4 metre wing won't keep up with my exhaust holes. It's where you drill the holes that makes the difference, they have to be in a special place on the muffler. My mate showed me.
