Yup, now we know it's just trollin'.

You got us. Describing a belt-driven supercharger instead of a turbo (which is a supercharger, but not vice versa) was genius. The $500 plastic pipe was good too. I think you should have argued how a yellow mono-wiper cuts down air resistence and should be good for 2 seconds in the quarter, but that might have been a bit over the top.

On the remote chance you're not trolling and are just afflicted with a mild case of Downs you might want to do some math on how many liters/hour of fuel it takes to maintain a 12.5:1 air/fuel mixture at the kind of RPM and boost you'll need to put out 260 hp. You can use 85% volumetric efficiency for a base when adjusting for amount of boost you'll be running.

Then compare that to the rated capacity of your fuel injectors and fuel pump.

BTW, my wife owned a 96 civic and an '05 focus. I liked driving the focus better, it was a fun little econobox with character. I'd laugh in the face of anyone suggesting a 100% moar power buildup for it though.

Jk about the parents thing, I actually notified I was gonna upgrade my car and they figured all kids my age do the same thing.

So I really am continuing to upgrade. I visit the Focus Fanatics forum and tons of people have modded their 08-10' Focus's and are getting really great results. Go check them out.

That's not mine, I was just showing you some of the tricked out Focus's from focusfanatics.com...

My Focus is just plain black with limo tints.
 
Post your car with you holding a piece of paper that says 'ATG' on it. It will appease the masses.

The masses need to be appeased. :awe:

This thread will end in epic closure if the sign says instead "smile, you've just been trolled!"

I modded my auto tranny shifter to look like a man thanks to a friend of mine, was actually very easy to do.

Carbon fiber is real too, had it done at the window tint shop for $250, better than the cheap plastic it came with.
