How shady are you about your build?

[CSquared]

They're steal your shit without knowing what's under the hood. Don't want it stolen? Park it in the garage or don't build it.

I know man... But I honestly think I would still get more enjoyment out of having the car, taking it out from time to time and being neurotic as opposed to not having it at all.

Depends on the person running their mouth. My mustang...I couldn't really lie about that horrific screaming sound from the Procharger. So I told them I had a broken A/C clutch. lol Some people bought it.

The only thing I would be sneaky about is spray...cus that's pretty much all you can lie about, and how much boost you're actually running. Most car people can hear/see what has been done.

-Ant.

this ^^
what are you trying to hide anyway? boost? spray? built?
cant hide boost
if you tuck, hiding spray isnt a problem, mines nicely tucked away, wont know im spraying if you dont know crap about spray, "Hint" wide open throttle switch
built? can always say its stock.......

I mean my car is turbo.... It's a 1989 Toyota Supra and the turbo badge is built into the molding on these cars so I can't really lie about that either way. ha. But I really don't plan on sharing any details beyond that and I think I can still pretty easily get away with the "yeah it's stock turbo with a blow off valve and wastegate dump" (unlike a stock NA car where people immediately wonder "wtf is under the hood" when you pulling up whining).

There's nothing really sleeper about Supras. Either it's boosted or not boosted. If it's boosted, I'm expecting something wild under the hood. If it's not boosted, I'm expecting the car was just purchased and waiting for something wild under the hood in the coming months. Really dude, of all cars, you should be least bashful about yours. You can't stop anyone from taking your car, no matter how much shit talking and security you have to do or have. So show it off and STFU. It keeps people like me from calling you a prick and walk away from you.

Like I mentioned in my last response I assume you're thinking my car is a 93-98 TT? When I see an 86-92 at a meet I usually assume that it is a piece of shit as most of them are built with rubber bands and paper clips and guys wonder why they blow sky high. I can understand the assumption for the mk4 guys though because I see one of those and immediately assume it's at least a t70 500hp or something along those lines.

or u can just hide ur swap for a while and eventually they will give u money to pop ur hood like they did me. lol

How much money we talking about making? ha.

Problem with that is, no one cares if you call them a prick and walk away. I mean that in the nicest way possible. Even if you're at a meet someone doesn't have to pop their hood and tell you all the details. If you want it to be private info, that's perfectly fine. I personally don't have a problem disclosing my build, I typically don't drive cars that are commonly stolen, and I only raced people I knew personally that wouldn't sandbag me. And there is definitely a certain point where you can't continue having a sleeper. If your car really is seriously modded anyone with a good knowledge base will be able to see somethings up.

Yeah even back in my BONE stock days I wasn't really one to hang out around my car to begin with. 9 times out of 10 somebody pops their hood and I could give a shit less unless it's a similar car and we can talk setups. Ha I'm ok with being the prick that won't pop his hood.

Stock its always stock.....These are words for the wise

Yeah man it's stock turbo with a blow off valve and a dump pipe. Also a front mount because I guess I can't really hide that. ha
