Default Is this what all tunners do?? Just asking.

I came up on this vid on youtube and everyone is standing around looking at this POS ( well to me anyway ) car and the car to me is just annoying and stupid.

Damn, I can't listen to that for more than like 20 seconds.

Not something I would do, but I've never seen that!
