Yeah, it's called the Tornado, and it's bullsh*t from everything I've heard. It's so cheesy, how could it not be bull?

Don't do it. It's like when we were kids and we put cards in our bike tire spokes, sounded cool for a little bit, but ended up loser-ish. Pretend motorbikes are no fun unless they are real motorbikes.[/b]

basically..ill say..do what ya do, and make it work for ya. its your car. and i dont care what you put on it. but a guy that i work with, bought one of these as a "practical joke" and it does not even sound CLOSE to real. its timing is way off. and it sounds nothing like a turbo spooling up. it will also whistle when you let off the gas..so people will know its not real. and dont you think people are probably going to realize that it isnt real when theres no blow off?

so real that I wish I thought of it - If there is a market for things of this "horribly-dumb" nature ....then there is money to be made.

THose things are so stupid, have you ever heard one? You can't ever electronically mimic the sound of a real turbo spooling up, and anyone who hears your exhaust will know there is no turbo.
