I recently had one from a honda guy about DSMs.

I met an old friend's new boyfriend. The past few guys she dated were morons so i wasn't expecting any different.

To my dismay, i'm starting to like this guy when he asks about my car. I give him a little info and he responds:

"Nice, you should swap a B16 in it".

I laugh...hard, thinking to myself "I really like this guy, he's funny shit".

Then i realize he's completely serious...

I have to be nice to him to keep the peace, so i ask why i should do that.

He tells me that smaller engines have more compression, and rev higher, so i would make a lot more power.

I quickly changed the subject.
 
I know this is supposed to be about DSMs but I saw this and had to post it. It's rediculous stupid. I don't know if this video has already been posted but if it has then here it is again. You must watch it! in my opinion anyway.

my friend drives a 96 gs and i saw his car the other day with a fmic...


me: damn bro!! you already put a turbo on it?
him: na man! i just put the fmic with some piping connected to the air filter in the other end of it so i can get more cold air from my cold air intake...but is still looks badass right?
me: :confused::confused::confused:

Glad you enjoyed it. I was like WTF when I saw this. I probably would have shown my a$$ if that guy was talking to me about a VTEC Mustang with a tall engine cooler all signed by "the VTEC Rep". LOL

That's quite possibly the worst example of stupidity i've ever seen.

Thanks for posting it.
 
Im pretty sure the guy with the mustang was messing around.

Usually people that are that dumb can't afford that nice of a car.
 
This is a conversation i had with one person at a car show i just pulled into and opened my hood.

Guy: This is nice man.
Me: Thanks
Guy: This has an H duce in it doesn't it.(Honda motor)
Me: A what???
Guy: An H-22

At this point i felt my IQ droping from being around this person:aha: so I stared at him for another second and closed my hood then drove away.

The most common dumbest asked question would probably be , "Wheres the turbo?"
 
i was walking out to my car after work when i guy pulled up in a civic blowin white smoke out the exaust. here's how the conversation went......

him: "is that your talon?"
me: "yup"
him: "fast?"
me: "kinda"
him: "wanna race?"
me: "maybe after you fix your shit..."
him: "this vtec turbo is suppost to blow that smoke. gives me more hp"
me: "hahahahahaha"
 
a kid at my school that wishes he knew alot about cars.. he talks alot of BS there are a few occasions where ive laughed and walked away...

1. Him: So i hear you got a talon.
Me: ya, just a few weeks ago
Him: I bet my car will smoke yours
Me: dont you drive a bonneville?
Him: ya, but dude, that things so fast, i can do 0-60 in 3.5 seconds
Me: *Laughing* OK, keep thinkin that your cars faster then a Vette..


2. Him: so, did you hear about the caviler im building?
Me: no, what are you doing to it?
Him: Oh its gonna be sweet man, im making it an import.
Me: Really? *acting interested* hows that?
Him: im ordering all these parts from overseas, like a triple turbo setup and everything(yes he said that haha)
Me: Your stupid, chevy makes a caviler making it a domestic car..
Him: Ya but when you put parts that arnt made in the US, its an import
Me: your a dumba**, quit talking *walks away


3. Yes.... yet another one....

Him: ya i got that caviler to where i could drive it, it doesnt have alot done to it yet, but its super fast
Me: really? whats the 0-60? *knowing hes full of S**t*
Him: I cant get a good test, its to fast
Me: Hows that??
Him: well everytime i go past 1/8th throttle, it does a wheelie and then the body kit hits the ground
Me: Your cars not RWD...
Him: no, its fwd..
Me: *shakes head, walks away*

And he also informed me that A V8 diesel has 6 spark plugs, and i told him he was stupid because diesels only have glow plugs. and he informed me that im a dumbass and that i dont know anything... ive only worked on a farm fixing tractors since the age of 13.. (4.5 years) and im goin to school for diesel mechanics..

Some people...

Oh I hear ya...
 
i havent had my talon for longs so not really much has been said to me but i was at a gas station and i reved it a few times and some kids in a cavalier where like "yo that shits hot what year is it
' and i say 96 and he says"that shits dope do you wanna race
' and i said i cant( the car wasnt on the road at the time kinda risked it driving to get gas) and the he said dam and then they did a shitty ass burnout and drove away.

ohh and another time last summer i had a 88 supra red tagra top 5speed non turbo but the car was cool and people always asked if it was turbo and when i said no that would say"oh" i felt like i was letting them down haha but this one time i was at a dunkin donuts and i had my hood up and this kid comes over and says nice supra and i say thanks and then he aske is it turbo and i was already pissed about the battery cable breaking and i say do you see a turbo? and he kinda goes to answer and i point out where it would be if it was there and he says i know and then i look at him like then why the hell did you ask? and he walked away hahaha it was funny.
 
Sorry it is really a DSMer statement. Most guys here know I am new to the DSM scene. I just got my eclipse running so I was out driving it. These Honda civic kids pulled next to me at red light.

them. Is that an Eclipse
me. ummm yeah
them. Is it turboed
me. yup
them. how much boost you pushin
me. I don't know. 8-10lbs
them. where boosting 18lbs
me. civics don't come turboed do they?
them. we don't need one we have a B18 swap

Holy **** I glad the light changed to greenLOL
 
Not really a conversation but long before I got my gst, me and some friends were out riding bikes and a rs eclipse pulls up beside us rolls down his window. Starts saying hes got a c note his eclipse will spank my bike and revs the pee out of his car. Now at that time I had a 05 636 ninja with every power adder they make, so I just started laughing and reved it to 13k, he rolled his window up and drove like an old lady when the light turned. LOL

Boost fluid FTW ROFLROFL "You can add in a different coolant and it'll give it like 8 pounds of boost". I was relieved that it was all staged, I had a list going here.

Post #819, the guy faild twice. First he said "AIC" and then said that the DSM isn't American!

"Dyno results are worthless if not backed by ET" ??? WTF While certain 1/4 results are important. ET has as much to do with driver and suspension and traction as it does with power. MPH with a known weight is the real varification of a dyno sheet. Some folks just don't think about what they are saying. Or really don't have any experience in the topic discussed.
 
I was out at the sunday night meets when this kid I absolutely despise pulled in with his VW GLI. The kid is always revving the piss outta the car and all he has done is a downpipe going back to stock muffler. Don't ask me why he did this. So I decide to embarass him in front of the crowd that night. I walk up to his car...

me: this yours?
him: yeah, I like your eclipse
me: it's a talon, but thanks
him: no it's not, talons had different bodies and didnt come turbo
me: HAHAHAHA, dude, are you telling me I don't know what I drove here tonight?
him: (silence)
me: so whats done to this?
him: nothin
me: nothin? then why do I always hear you revving your crap around here?
him: well I have a chip and downpipe
me: a chip!? what kinda chip?
him: it's a power chip, added like 15hp
me: what did it do? increase fuel? (basically just trying to egg him on)
him: I dunno what it did
me: do you put something electronically in your car and you have no clue what it does, but it added 15hp?
him: umm basically
me: did you get it dyno'd?
him: no
me: but you know what 15hp feels like so well that you can tell right?

at that point I walked away pleased by the laughter of the crowd...

You must really not like that guy.
 
Not a dsmer but kid's I go to school with believe there is no way my car will go over 120mph because one of them's mom has a audi a4 and it wont go past 120mph. ANother thing is I guess 4x4 and awd are the same thin just awd is full time haha. Also I guess a 2006 dodge hemi 5.7l quad cab will blow my car away on a non icey dya on a dry road when its sunny. Haha I asked why so dry they said "Because your car's awd it would destroy his truck in the snow". Little do they know but also on dry tar haha.
