Default First kill on the bottle

Finally!!! Its all hooked up, so I went out to play last saturday night. I hooked up with a 5.0 and we messed around for a little while but due to traffic couldn't actually go. We caught a light and I noticed a unusually loud wining coming from under the hood... I thought at first i picked the wrong car to mess with but i would try just for the hell of it. We turned at the light and got next to each other rolling about 10mph and both nail it....system was armed so we sprayed the hell out of it. I dont know how many cars it was i pulled, i was to excited. The guy came up next to me, i gave him thumbs up he gave them back and asked what i had done i told him just boltons. We pulled over into a parking lot examined eachothers cars. Because the bottle and solenoids were hidden never noticed the n2o . I however did see a nice vortech under his hood ... sorry so long ....

I think you should have told him since he let you see all his mods

dude, that wasn't a vortech, it was a shiny K&N filter...the whining was a belt, just like every other 5.0. that is gay when you lie to someone about your mods

That's cool then. Most of the kids who aren't gearheads don't notice the Vortech on my car, it looks like just a normal domestic intake to most import drivers. WHen they hear the whine, I just tell 'em "Faulty air pump" works every time, heh heh. Afterwards I always let em know, though. Good job fessin up, keep killin em!

I totally agree by 2005 if my car doesn't kill the new mustangs it's gonna be because I blew it up putting too much crap on it. Every LT1 and LS1 on the road might not take the 05s but I can assure you they aren't going to be as amazing as they were in the concept. Oh and by the way nice kill, I probably would have informed the guy about the nitrous as well.

I don't understand why nitrous is looked at completely different from all other mods. Its a power adder, just like a turbo, cam, supercharger, bolt-ons, etc. Although I barely ever use my nitrous, I find no reason to tell someone when I sprayed them, and I find no reason for anyone to tell me when they sprayed me. Bottom line is the faster car won, period. If the guys cool and you want to tell him, go right ahead, but theres no rule that says when you spray someone you HAVE to tell them.

Nice kill either way.

COBRA = Car Operated By Retarded ******* (sorry cobra drivers)

Thought that was a good one to add, it's my fav one

As for the '05 concept, it was nuts. If they produce them like that, I'll definitely own one in the future As for now, I'm not too worried about stangs. I wanna see how my car does against an '05, though. Wonder if they'll do another factory power-adder?
