yeah im wondering is it a muffler that makes the sound when he shifts gears at the first of the moive in the parking lot doing around 140 every time he shifts it makes a sound and if its the muffler what kind is it? cause i heard this same sound on a POS corissa 4 door they had a custom muffler and was reffing it up. i was LOL but it sounded good but was not the kinda car to put it on.

I can't believe I am even answering this but... Its not a muffler, but an added device.

As far as the movie, I liked the story. But the "hollywood" version of these cars was, well.. not worth destroying a Dodge Charger!!!! And for the record, that charger was an AUTOMATIC that Vin Diesel was manually shifting!!! :D Sorry, that was left over from the last thread I read were there was a question posted about where his clutch was?!?! :tease:

I'm still laughing!!! Ok... I'm going to bed.

Supposedly the Charger was a beat up, inline-6 jump car from the Dukes of Hazzard. Being as Mopar A and B bodies were uni-body chassis, the car was trashed due to a bent frame thereby making it less disireable. That's what I read back in the day and never cared to research further to dispute a stupid movie. However he was manually shifting...with a ratchet shifter. I used to have one on my elcamino and if I started in first gear I could shift higher. there's more to an auto straightline than just letting it do the work for ya. :thumb:
 
Wow what is this world coming to when people actually sell that kind of stuff on ebay? I was thinking of bidding on it it for the slowbra, what do you guys thing? ROFL

Yeah me too would have to work for a living if I did. P.T. Barnum said it best "There's a sucker born ever minuet."

Amen, however I think the "supercharger whine simulator" wouldn't do quite as well. :D
