91 Fc Vs Twin Turbo Probe?
#1
This is a older kill i had back when my 7 was on the road just thought i would share it here.
Well here is how it worked out. Where i grew up there were these 2 brothers like 3 houses down the road. well the one has a civic 4 door automatic. all riced out and ****. well anyhow i was down visiting my mom seeing how she was doing and **** and chris pulls up (the one with the civic...oh btw its purple. ) well he comes down and starts talking how he has a type R motor comming in from japan and all this other **** (their whole family lies like crazy. always have. even his mom and dad) well i was down there and his brother josh pulls up. and i was like nice probe. lol. and he said he bought it for 600 cause the turbos were blown.. so by this time i am thinking WTF. and he said they had them replaced. well i asked him to see the motor cause i said "chris they never made a twin turbo probe." and he kept swearing up and down it was. well anyhow i asked him to show me the motor and he said only if i bet him 500.00 well i did not have the $ to bet so i said no. well anyhow i was leaving and josh was commin out behind me. (its a auto BTW.) so i was running to the store and josh was headed to his girls house. we get on the main road and line up at the light. so i looked out the window and asked him if he wanted to race and he said he would spank the hell out of me. well the light hit green and i was not paying attention i was playing with the radio getting some racing music on. and i hit it he had about 15 ft head start on me. so i hit 2nd and chirped them. i held the gas down and BEEEPPPPPPPP!!!!! so i hit 3rd and i held it down. till i heard another BEEEP!!! and i look over to see where he went and he was not next to me. so i look in my rear veiw mirror and he is about 3 cars behind me. so i was like turbo my ***. so i got back to the house after the gas run and i was talking to his bro and told him how bad i had just beat josh and he said thats cause they have the boost turned down to 20psi. i started laughing. i said "chris you are running 20 psi on stock TWINS?" he said "yea normally we have them set at 30psi." by this time i could not keep a straight face i was crying i was laughing so hard. well when his brother came back i told him to pop the hood and chris said he couldnt cause he shut the hood to hard and it jammed shut. well i looked around on the interior and there was no boost gaudge nothing so i broght that up and he points to this little clock thing on the dash and said that was the boost gaudge. ok whatever. well 3 weeks later i see josh and his brother was not around to make up lies for him. and he asked me if i knew how to put on those ricer led's well i happen to know because i put them on a friends car. So i told him i would have to see if i can get them through the holes in the hood and i could not tell unless he poped it. (i used that to get a look at the motor) well while the hood was up i saw i could not put them on the car and while it was up i was looking around the motor and i asked josh where the turbo's were and he pointed to the exhaust manifold on it and said they were in there. i was like ok so you are tellin me your turbos are 1 1/4 inch in diamiter and you are pushing 20+ psi? i started laughing at him and told him how stupid he was telling everyone it was a Twin turbo. needless to say he is now the new laughing stock of this town. not to mention his brother got kicked out of his car club for making up a bs lie like that and not knowing enough about cars to be allowed in. so all ricers get theirs.
sorry so long

I told one of my friends that I'm pushing 12 psi in each turbo... I tried explaining it to him but he doesn't seem to get it. He thinks they are both on pushing 12 pounds each at the same time. So if he ever talks about my car he says it is pushing 24lbs of boost on stock motor and stock twins.
Then I have to correct him.
