Worse...some kid at my school has a 4.5 or 5 inch pipe on his Civic or old integra...don't know who he is but we bought a can of coffee (Go Maxwell House!) punched a couple of holes in the bottom and ducttaped it to his muffler. Looked and sounded even better!

It wasn't there like two days later so the assumption is that he found it, but he might have driven off with it.

Yesterday, I saw an idiot with a Geo Metro (folks, this is a 3 cylinder POS) I once did an engine job on one, I lifted the motor out WITHOUT an engine lift, just picked it up.

Okay, back to the story. This idiot was driving this poor excuse for a car, and behind the right rear wheel, with the panel banged away with a hammer, bolted to the 1 1/2 inch exhaust pipe was the stainless fart can muffler. The idiot drilled the flange of the muffler, and used a steel lag bolt to hold it on there, the bolt was half the diameter of the exhaust pipe on the car.


To top it off, the muffler was sticking out a foot from the car, serious safety hazard there, but he was too cool to care.

I can't even think of how to describe how this thing sounded. Maybe he was trying to get it to sound like a four cylinder.

I couldn't resist the urge. I pulled up next to him at the light, and asked him...

"Hey, I'm thinking of putting one of those things on my lawnmower, do they really add more power?"

Then he threw me the bird, and I peeled away from the light, laughing hysterically.

Maybe one day, he'll realize why his passenger seat will never have a female in it.
