Car lit on fire today!
 
---- what a day, was headed to the mall with my girl when all the sudden smoke started rolling out the dash. pulled over to check on it and i knew right away that it was the switch for my water injection set-up. The fucker fused together and burned up. Started up a bunch of ---- under my dash but i got it out right away. Nothing fucked up except the switch and wiring. Should have put that fucker on a fuse but i totally spaced it oh well.

Maybe you didn't read the part of Maximum Boost where Corky Bell said,

"A water injector on a turbo car is a poor excuse band-aid for not doing the job correctly the first time."

Good thing kyle has an apc fire extinguisher on his A pillar. lol

Corky bell is a grease monkey, not a scientist. His theories are based on opinions, not on facts.
His book has nice pictures though.

No it wasn't the first date but that would be fucnny as hell. Actually i had the water injection system on just to clean out my engine. And i had to take it out today because the windshield wiper fluit ate my motor up.
