Well, gosh, dual exhausts must mean I'll have twin turbos!!!!

Lemme see..............yellow decals (extra hp)?? Check. Japanese lettering at top of windshield (more extra hp)?? Check. Type R badges all around (still more extra hp)? Check. 4 ft high baskethandle wing (and still MORE extra hp)?? Check.

Now that I've got "noiZe", I think my mods are complete!!!!

You know what the retarded part is... the person who invented that WILL make hundreds of thousands of dollars off of that idea. What we would all look down upon and never consider... someone else did. Its crazy.

I bought two of them...The wizard is what sold me.

By the way, who the hell turbo's their car ONLY for the sound?! I have turbo, and it doesn't even make a sound.

HAHAHA!!!

I just ordered a thousand.

I didn't notice the wizard the first time.

What a way to sell ... that wizard has it all. Tapping on my screen, poofing for no reason, items appearing and disappearing, "w00t", all-caps text ... what more could you want?
