I know you're baiting me. You have to be baiting me with that.

No. The receiver that the ball goes on must extend at least another foot or two for true ricer HP points. Yours is far to short and the chrome ball gives you +2 at best.

Rule of thumb for such add ons to maintain full HP points:


"If NOBODY CAN BRUISE THEIR SHIN ON IT THEN IT ISN'T BIG ENOUGH"

Yea, they even recommend you not use it directly out of the bottle (it's cooking sauce not a BBQ sauce) but I happen to like the taste mixed with other things. Don't care for it straight up as much.

You're doing it wrong!! You've installed the tow ball on the wrong car!! To get +20hp, it has to be fixed to the rump of FRS..
