What pisses me off the most is when people look under the hood of my car that has a fa20club 60 trim kit and people ask me if I have anything done to the car, or assume that it's stock. ARE YOU CRAZY?

Only mods with obnoxious colors are considered mods to non fanatics these days...

Personally I like the stock look...the black ceramic coating on my kit's plumbing makes for a very stealth kill

I just came from a Sonic and a guy pulled up next to me while i was in the drive through, AND on the phone. Inopportune timing for sure.

"What kind of car is that? Is it turbo?"

"Its an FR-S, and no."

"Whats it got under there?"

"A boxer motor, its pretty awesome."

He obviously had no idea what a boxer motor was, so his next response was extra amounts of awesome:

"Oh, nice! I know Boxsters are fast, so yours must be fast too. Thanks!"

all the jdm 86s come with turbos, you just have to remove the restrictor in the vaccum line to get it to boost. they have an agreement with the government to not publish that information so you probably wont hear about it anywhere else.

I say this with love but you dont have a motor but an engine !! XD

Most people wouldn't know a fast car if it ran them over, so you're probably safe to say "yes" to anyone

you can also add that the buttons just under the shifter ( tsc and vsc) are different suspension settings like my salesman tough !

You want them to say, "That's a turbo, right?"

ftc~brz · 08-17-2013, 03:46 PM

hubs took the car to a local car show and several people saw the innovate s/c and said,"oh they are coming supercharged from the factory!"
I'm glad I was at work and not there, I just may have stroked out over such comments.
