Check this out, found it while cruising eBay:

I was dumbfounded. I just wonder how long before I see one of these. Hey Gary, maybe you should add these to your offerings!

Shhhh, it's supposed to be a secret to keep me protected from ridicule.

J/K

I'll bet 99% of the customers are under 18.

lolllllll

I wonder who in their right i-have-a-legit-product mind invents this stuff. what a let down when someone asks "so you got a turbo right? sounds goooooood. lemme look under the hood"............ooohh um, that's going to be an awkward silence. hopefully someone will be smart enough to notice there's no turbo spool sound. ya.

they should make one that sounds like a supercharger

in fact, run a whole line products that will make your car sound like its got a farter cannon

if you wanna screw it all an go with the 4 banger soundin like a v8
a special manifold will be made so you have no muffeler attachment!

it'l run you the price of an ebay mod


i think they should make somthing funny
have like a major or minor car part modifying company's sticker modified to say the company name, and then in a white and black part of it, that will say "+50hp!"

and i giant *** park bench wing thats has a sticker on it that says "+300hp!" and includes a RWD sticker

an aftermarket steering wheel with nitrous buttons. that dont do ****

a fake *** nitrous bottle made outa 2 litre coke bottles with pbc piping leading no where

euro door panels that include M3 fenders and a very large blower hood scoop for your roof

some giant *** rims that dont fit your car, or even look good on it

a giant tack with a 5 inch diamiter that comes free when you order 20 type R stickers

door handles on the outside that say v tec on them and in the inside mazdaspeed

seats that say STI on them



spray paint for your calapers

neon lights around your headlights, tail lights, around your wheel wells, around your steering wheel, on your lug nuts,

some low profile bald *** tires with less then 15% life left in them (they will be sold as professional racing tires)

carbon fiber engine blocks

carbon fiber shocks and brakes

and for every car part/sticker you buy, you get a collecters edition fast and furious logo and dvd!

and thats just for a civic


im outa stuff. but you get the idea where the inventer could have gone

kmaalfiisa, I see a great future ahead of you as a purveyor of eBay car parts. Maybe Gary can hook you up with people in Korea who can produce it for pennies on the dollar. Just remember, keep the price low and overcharge out the yingyang on shipping!

Does anyone recall the fake V-twin engines they used to make for bicycles (yes, I am that old)? You turned a key and got a sound like a revving engine. All show and no go. Seems like this is a logical extension of that, for those who never understood that form should FOLLOW function.

You know, I also posted this over on theboardwhichmuchnotbenamed, and not a single person posted (there were a few views). Now what do you suppose that says? This is beneath them, or they were too busy ordering one?!!!!!!

I don't remember specifically seeing something like that, but it's been a while. I do, though, remember seeing and riding a bmx-sized bike that was dressed up as a dirt bike. It wasn't very comfortable or convincing. Kinda like those razor scooters with springs. Do they do anything?
