I like how people pull numbers from the sky!

Do people just stand back, look at what they've just done and think... yeah that looks like 10hp




and that poor MAF must be so confused lol.

I've tried replying to that several times now, but I can't do it without generating a post that I would feel I have to then give myself an infraction for, and then moderate it out.


Ah well.

"it cools the engine allot faster since there are fans right underneath the intake"

Yeah. Well this is what happens on a large scale when you can get an RX-8 for $5,000.00.

I hate how people don’t realize how good the stock air box really is.... "Oh I’ll just chuck this huge chunk of plastic away, it can’t have any engineered properties to it and replace it with something I think is waaay better.

I swear the Rx-8's on Instagram makes me want to hide my 8 in a bomb shelter. Ghetto rice galore. Obviously directly associated with borderline retarded owners.
