friend thinks that since he bought an s2k, (his first real import. he had an MX6 before it) so i decided to fuck with him pulling a similar trick like the flux capacitor joke. text conversation went this way. im still laughing
him: hey man herard wes got a new car what did she get
me: 92 prelude
him: nice got anything done to it
me: a jdm h22, weight reduction, megan headers, and megan catback
him: what happened to fixin up the beetle
me: ha she found a buyer. sold it for 5300
him: oh so she can take you now
me: yeah, you too. kinda sad but not me for long
him: oh i dunnno about that
me: nah you would be suprised, it beats a stock s2k
him: well if it does, not by much. the guy who had my car had twin turbos on it
THIS IS WHERE IT GETS GOOD
me: you said it had twin turbos on it?
him: oh yeah the kid had those but took them off
me: was the guy running methanol in the gas tank to compensate for the boost increase?
him: i dunno. why, is that bad?
me: no, you need methanol to keep from locking up the engine with twin turbos on 4 cylinder engines. thats why im buying a supercharger
him: oh. i dunno. when you gonna get yours? what do you think would be a good comp for my car would be
me: for an s2k, prob a Hondata Gateway 2zz
(hondata is the lead in to make him believe it. we all know gateway computers. and the celica gt-s engine is a 2zz)
him: would it make it faster?
me: it would boost your vtec engagement and fuel torque. could maybe put you in the mid 13s in the quarter mile
him: nice
nothin else but its kinda sad id do that to my own friend and then post it here. wow
