I...uh...

...I know this person.

I've been trying to guide him through his turbo kit install so he does it properly and doesn't blow up his engine. Obviously he didn't listen.

This is on stock fuel, stock tuning, nothing is changed.

He's running something around 8psi on an eBay 50trim. I can't believe it hasn't thrown a rod yet.



The exhaust is melting the alternator wires.

Yes, he drives around like that.





Yes, that is the turbo oil return line going into the dipstick hole...

Unfortunately, it is real.

I was talking to him a couple weeks ago, listing all the parts needed to be even reasonably safe (intercooler piping, SMIC, wideband, AFPR, a fucking oil return line to the pan, EXHAUST).

I thought I made it clear to him that all of these things were equally important and necessary.

Found out a few days ago that he completely ignored my advice and put all this shit on the night after I talked to him.

It's his DD and only car...

Cavalier? Check.
Gay ebay headlights? Check.
Giant hole in hood? Check.
Budget of $300? Check.
No actual knowledge of how engines work? Check.

I see nothing wrong with this. This is completely normal.

Oh my!!!... Home made turbo gone rice.... That's funny that's what that is...

My lawnmower engine is bigger then that turd... Nice PVC pipe coming out of the hood..

I actually thought that was the electric supercharger setup you get off Ebay for 50 bucks that guarantees massive horse power..

Hey! It's not the size that matters; it's how you use it.

When said car does catch fire, I hope he doesn't think insurance will cover the repairs.

I actually haven't even seen the car in person...my other friend took these pics.

I don't know if I would want a ride...at least without a fire extinguisher.
