Re: You know there a nOOb with turbo's when they say...
This thread is funny, but sad.
No matter the subject, if you know a reasonable amount about it...everyone seems really dumb when they start talking about it. |

Re: You know there a nOOb with turbo's when they say...
I just ran down the store to get some cigs about 20 minutes ago. Buncha kids in a riced up neon sittin there starin at me when I pulled in. Left the car runnin (small town, nobody bothers to steal cars :P), ran in and got my smokes, came out and the one kid asks what I have in the car. Since I decided to take my turbo off my car today, I told him it's just a bone slow b16. Kid then asks me if I have vtec in that ---- :1 So I told him yup...2 of em and drove off ;D

Re: You know there a nOOb with turbo's when they say...
^ You reminded me, I loved when people asked if I had Vtec in my civic (d16z6 autotragic) and I was like.. well yes...then that was followed by "omg it must be so fast" :1 NOT QUITE.

Re: You know there a nOOb with turbo's when they say...
here's a classic one from HT awhile backjust couldnt stop LMAO... nothing to do with turbo but oh well..
"hey guys what's the difference between a long block and a short block, i heard short block gets better gas milage?" lol couldnt find the link to it but i guess it was deleted |
Re: You know there a nOOb with turbo's when they say...
some of the locals around my town cant seem to grasp the concept that a long block isnt a longer stroke... this one kid kept asking me after i swapped my b16 in my car if i bought the long block or the short block. i was like umm the complete swap with the trans. hes like well wich one is it. im like i guess u could say a long block but with a trans and the ecu and everything to swap it and hes like ok so u have the b16 with the longer stoke.. at that point i just decided to go with it and say yea cuz he was one of those kids who thought he is always rite lol

Re: You know there a nOOb with turbo's when they say...
you are telling me that i bought my swap with the long block and it dose not have a longer stroke. ---- i got screwed. ::)

Re: You know there a nOOb with turbo's when they say...
The one thing I get a lot is people asking me how much boost I'm running, and when I tell them 20 on pump, they tell me I'm going to blow up my motor.
That's when I quit listening to anything they have to say. |

i mean.. it's okay to say, "dude, iono ---- about car or it's mods." but i got to admit, i hate people who only read forums and read about other peoples setups and results and pretend they are gods in that department of modifying. people who have extensivly read and have informed themselves with of certin modifying procedures. basicly people who have 0 wrench time. those person i dislike the most. they claim to know everything when it's absolutely neccasary to have wrench time to be able to perform a modifcation. those people piss me off more. it takes Both Wrench time and Book research to learn the true basics of modifying. what the saying goes, "are you books smarts or street smarts." obviously it's best to know both. |
