Wink 2 Chamber Flowmasters= Rice Repelant!!???

I noticed that ever since I got my 40 series Flows on, not to many Rice Mobiles have tryed to pick a fight. Where as before, they all wanted to Line em up.

A saw a guy in a lowered, spoiler, fart tipped, body effected (More like infected) Honda racing and leaving everylight. He and a guy in an Intergra got into a race while I was a few cars behind. The guy reved at everything. At one light the passenger was pointing behind, towards me, and the driver looked at me and my car and reved.

The light turned green and he took off, the next light that was less than 1/8 mile away was red and traffic was light enough that I got over and pulled up beside him. He revved, and I sat there for a few moments listening to him revving. I looked over and they were looking at me wearing these big ugly toothy grins. I stared at them, all relaxed and unimpressed, I yawned. Then the guy took it up so high he tagged the rev limiter while revving.

I got sick of it and throw two revs back. first was to 3500 RPM, next was to 5 grand. They stopped right then and there. The drive looked straight ahead, the passenger nodded his head in what looked like approval.

The driver didnt want to race, but I showed how fast I could get to sixity right quick like. At the next light, I threw one rev and couldnt help but laugh. The light changed and before I took off, I yelled "C-ya".

Similar thing happened tonight. I love my flowMasters.

aahh yes the beautiful sound of 2 chamber flowmasters repelling any and all ricers with a heavy foot. i just got my 2 chamber flows put on last friday and have already had a few of those encounters (2 or 3). the second encounter took a big 'ole burnout to edge up to the line to shut a kid up in his civic. yes i said civic. but i've even had to rev on a fellow stang in an alotment(sp?) coming the other way. this guy has a fox body (93 i think) with racing stripes and guages on the dash and he's got nice sounding exhaust as well. but he's flicked me off a handful of times and he lives in my town. he didn't rev this time so i was able to make sure he heard my stangs "new voice".

dang i love flows

Not to many people have reved at me since I got the flows put on, at a light one time, a guy in a new Cougar said to his Girl "Hey honey. Wanna see me get my A$$ smoked?" Then after a few seconds, "Man that thing sound mean." Wait until I finish my next Street project buddy.

Ahhhhhhh yes, I love it. Loud V8=much goodness.
