been wondering bout some funny stuff people hear

I went up to importfest a few years back, saw a turbo’ed S2K. Upon closer inspection we noticed the intercooler piping was cleverly routed to not attatch to the TB. When we asked the owner why it was like that he stated that they finished the car late the night before and didn’t have time to tune it. OK, but you did have time to create all the new intercooler piping and get them powdercoated??
