Default Fake purge systems...

I want the look of a NoS purge system...I've heard you can use No2, or Co2...I would think Co2 is cheaper, because I can fill a 20 oz tank of it at a local paintball shop for $2...

Are there any systems that are strictly purge systems that dont actually hook up to the intake or throttle body??

I did say it was pointless...But I am debating on getting the Kaminari spoiler...

that one and the one the other guy wanted do about the same thing...nothing...

I just like the way it looks...as I'm sure the other guy did too...

Now...about my first question??

then dont diss the guy and just learn from your mistakes and its all g. i just dont like it when people diss others (mostly the jump on the bandwagon "haha, thats so rice!" or "haha, this sticker adds 15hp to your car" crowd)..and do or wanna do things to their car that are just as bad or even worse...a lot of people are into it for looks, others not..but dissing for someone for a part not being functional (just for looks), then wanting to get things just for looks (not functional), just hits off a nerve because its so stupid and yes hypocritical...
...about your quetion, im sure you could do something like that though ive never heard anyone doing something like this before.

Found it...





This kit comes complete with everything you need to install a Nitrous/CO2 Purge kit into your car without having to inject anything into your engine! Its a simple installation, comes with the 1.25LB Bottle and Bracket that can mount anywhere, High Flow solenoid, switches, wire, fuse and enough purge tubing (25') to make the plume of Nitrous/CO2 purge out of any location. Were not done! It comes with our custom CO2 adaptor so you can have the bottle filled at any paintball store to save tons of cash. Looks just like nitrous purging out in a great white plume at a 1/4 of the cost, its your choice! NOTE: Cannot be used with our Purge Nozzle but works great with the dual outlet Upgrade.

That thing would be *hysterical* on the right vehicle. Can you imagine rolling up in your '85 Yugo and "purging?"

apparently sock-stuffing is a full time activity.

That set-up is $199 on the website. For another $200 or so, you can get a NoS set-up, have the extra hp at the push of a button, and purge.

Hmm, maybe I should market that turbo/blow-off valve sound set-up.

I'd buy this system... but I'd run propane and hook up a sparkplug to fire when it sprays... maybe put it in my rear bumper to keep the tailgaters at bay

A better use for that CO2 purge kit would be to purge it into the engine bay and keep the engine temp down............or maybe blast it across your in take tube to cool the air charge........hell I dunno...........anything other than for just show.

CO2 would only take away horsepower because it is eliminating oxygen (which the car needs), plus it is more 1.5 times more dense.

If you want a REAL tool, you get a high flow purge kit with CO2 and have it aimed outside the wheel well directly to the person you are racing. When you shoot his car with the CO2, you are taking away some of his oxygen and so depriving him from needed horsepower.

TRUE FACT MY FRIEND...ONLY TRUE PURPOSE FOR A CO2 PURGE KIT.

i'm sorry this is the lamest fake mod i've ever seen.

when you buy a spoiler you don't do it so that people think that you need the downforce, you do it cause you like the way it looks.

buying a fake purge valve or a fake blowoff sound maker is done to make people think you have something you don't. if you think this looks cool i'm sorry. yeah thats about as silly as owning a kit ferrari. george is right, socks in the pants
