    Default Which should i buy??

    something that will keep me a little safer from cops when im going fast?
    (radar/lazer detector...)

    or

    something that'll allow me to go faster than im able to go now?
    (B&M Shiftplus...)



    What do y'all think?

    how uh, prone are you to speedin/wreckless driving? if more than just once in a while get a laser jammer! if you have a laser detector and it goes off it's already too late, radar you have very little time to react but still some.

    Well the lazer says somethin about 1/2 a mile?

    lol....."speedin", does 50 - 60mph at ALL times count as bein reckless/speedin?

    What about 80 - 90 on the highway

    the B&M wont make you faster, it will just give you firmer and harder shifts. i say the jammer thingy option. but you can control the tickets by slowing down. so over all id say get something that would actually help performance.

    dont buy either of those pieces of shìt. i can't believe I have to keep saying this to you:

    DONT PUT MONEY INTO THAT SHìT BOX!

    you wont get anything back from it. Buy a stereo, cd player radar detector, stuff like that that can be removed and installed on another car.

    I have a Cobra XRS 9730, used very little you can buy. Bought it for about $250. sell it to you for 100. gotta find the windshield mount but im sure i got it.


    but i recommend getting the Blinder, it is a laser jammer. best product on earth

    no you dont. most cops use laser now. it can detect at a greater range with greater accuracy. there is nothing that can beat that except a Laser Jammer. By the time you have the seen the cop, he has already tagged you. Most radar detectors cant pick up laser and if they can, it's already too late.

    Dont go fast on the streets simple as that. Boom fixed it. Only slow people speed on the streets anyway because they have to show off for people who dont know much about cars and think they are going "fast."

    very nice. +?


    as my dad says....the ones who dont have the horse power fly around town, the ones who do, dont need to show it off.

    when im boosted...i drive nice and slow. people try to fùck with me and i just let them go (unless it's going to be a good race) but when im boostless, damn...i have to get on it to get my slow fat car moving. haha

    If you drive recklessly, I would invest in a good lawyer and not a cheesy radar detector that tells you that you're about to get a ticket.
