PT Cruiser twin turbo

.

You know you are a true motorhead and latent racer-at-heart if you laugh within the first 45 seconds. Funnier the longer it goes on...





I could just see YT doing this in his very early days before he discovered the "Shadow Machine"..

Re: PT Cruiser twin turbo

In his defense, I can only assume that this was a parody poking fun at all of the "Hey, listen to my exhaust" clips on YouTube.

Just type in (any car you can imagine) + exhaust and see what comes up.

Cobra exhaust
Saleen supercharged exhaust
Corvette exhaust
GT500
Nova
TR6


even Subaru SVX exhaust.

BUMP TO THE TOP

I don't find this kind of stuff on my own. All credit for this is my son Pete ("petes_pearlie" on the network and the owner of a 1992 4.44, Konified pearlie)

I haven't heard him making these kinds of noises when I'm driving with him...


Not sure what he does when he is alone.

A photo of him at 16 and his car can be found here:

He came to a very rainy Reading 7 and became bored with the lack of action and left early. He is currently 20 and not much of a motorhead.

That's a bummer. His SVX is really pretty. Does he keep it nice, at least?

Yes I do. Between taking it up to svxfiles for whatever maintenance it needs and my attention to all the other details, it still remains in very good shape.

It has about 215,000 miles on it and runs extremely well. The engine is strong and the 4.44 gears pull extremely well. Runs as well as my 96. The Flowmaster exhaust is very mellow and suits that particular car very well.

I think he could be persuaded to part with it and get something a little bit more "mainstream" (pronounced Accord V6) He is worried about reliability and availability of parts in the future. He wants something he could take almost anywhere to get fixed if he was not living in the area.
