That's the dumbest-written article I've ever read. They guy is obviously a car-n00b. Not that it's a bad thing, but he shouldn't be writing 'tuner' articles if he doesn't know ****.

But some tuners, for street-cred points, pack their trunks with nitrous-oxide systems, a.k.a. “NOS,” which deliver a turbo boost at the flip of a switch. “They’re abusing the system,” says 22-year-old Daniel Song. “I know a lot of people who are melting their engines.”
It isn’t cool, though, to just throw anything on your car. Neon, for example, is embraced only by the newbies. Among hard-core tuners, neon is ... well, it’s tacky. Now, a demon-red Hyundai Tiburon with robotic-looking ground effects, euro tails and finished off with a Japanese aluminum wing? That is hot.
This WRITER is a freaking n00b.....

Anyway, I'm not here to judge. If a guy wants to throw $30k at a cavalier, that's fine with me. I'll probably end up throwing about $8-10k at my 323 when I'm done. And who knows if I'll even be 'done'.
