What do I do, he just bought a Cavilier. He already got the huge muffler, and now he’s getting two ebay 2000w crap amps for his “beats” using solid house wire to wire it up :bloated: . It’s only a matter of time before he gets a snow-plow on the front. And a double bookshelf on the back. What would one do in this case to tell him it’s a bad idea. Or should I let him ruin his car so I can have a good laugh every morning when I go to work? ---

lol deffinitly let him do it… then tell him it’s so sweet that you want to show your fellow motorhead friends on here. Then show him the thread after all is said and done. he will regret wasting the $$$ to do it, give us a good laugh, and probably teach him the way. I’ve done some awful shit to a car before (as I’m sure many here did when they were younger) and eventually I learned… ---

If he actually tries to push 4000 watts through solid 12 awg wire, just watch the car burn after the insulation ignites. (Not that the battery and/or alt won’t give out first or that the pair of 2000W ebay amps will actually push anywhere near 4000W, but it’s a fun scenario.) ---

he bought a cavalier and is ricing it…hes already taken 30 steps back. encouraging him to NOT mod it is only going to make him take 5 steps forward. id just let him be. [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/my-neighbor-is-a-ricer/18049.md?page=2)
