you take 4 mg of xanax, are you trying to audition for a zombie movie? 1.25 mg knocks me out for 5 years.

No replacement for displacement is how i remember it.

there is replacement for a displacement, it's called forced induction.... my car is natually aspirated... but i've had turbo cars before...

before my accord i owned a 91 Eagle Talon TSI AWD with lots of mods, and a Eclips GS-T with a few mods..... they would both rape my accord...

No cats? That makes me think you're an asshole.

The Vette' has cats; your car smells like sulfur.

No muffler? God.. fix your car.

Congrats.. you hung with a corvette.. Now go pass an emissions test.

it's not even loud either, idling, or just normal driving its not much louder than any other car... wide open throttle in VTEC though, yeah it's really f-ing loud.
