coming home from my gfs tonite i ran into this red firebird with magnaflow exhaust and stickers in the windows… so anyways im driving down XXX and i he gets next to me and keeps lookin @ my car and sayin shit about it to his gf… so im like ok… i dont wanna risk racing on XXX but if this kid keeps being a cock im gonna put him in his place… so we get a couple openings i sit in 2nd gear and do a couple reactive pulls on him… everytim he would hit it id spool and go to his door and stop… just trying to avoid a full out race so he would get the message that the car is pretty quick… sooo we do this for about 4 or 5 stoplights and i get next to him @ a light… he says to me… why do u keep waisting your gas… im like are you serious… i havnt even floored it yet… so he is like ok… so light goes green we kinda roll off and im like fuck it… he punches it and so do i… by the end of 2nd gear i was at his door… half way through third im about 2 cars ahead and pulling HARD away from him… than i pop off an intercooler pipe… but i was about to shut down anyways… so this kid comes of behind me and goes from his usual sitting at my passenger door and staring @ my car to two lanes to my right and staring straight ahead… his gf is LAUGHING and staring @ me… kid turns right and i gave hima beep and he didnt look over

i was quite satisfied… im really hoping for some people who arent dicks after i show them what the car is capable of

Man, you gotta get some real clamps on that intercooler piping, or at least do _something_ about it. I think I’d put up with that happening only once if it was my car. After that the hoses would be hi-temp epoxied to the pipes, then held in place with two hose clamps on each end torqued to 300 ft-lbs.
