Well if the Hyundai was my beater or junker, and it would still pass inspection, I would do it lol. 4 bangers sounds crazy bouncing off the rev limiter with stacks out of the hood. Our last count fair demo derby, several cars had this setup. Too funny.

Too big for the Hyundai. I would lose major back pressure and have to fab up a ridiculous flanged coupler to fit it lol

.
Very true, and speedos are usually off, and if a speedo it out, it's a percentage not an amount, so if your say 7 out at 100 k then your 21 out at 300. Mind you , it sure feels like it. It just hits 299 and just starts flashing and won't let the bike go any faster. a tre would resolve this but honestly..... Why go faster....then again why not right

I saw it yesterday as well. Had free tickets. I was entertained, wasn't bad. After seeing the train+bomb+man stunt, I'm hoping for a train crashing into a helicopter in the next film.

Status: online 		Can't wait for this short week to be over with. Thursday-Sunday off. Going to be nice. Hope to adress some issues with the struts on the Hyundai. Depending on the weather, might break out the XS for a little bit. Definitely not doing Black Friday shopping. Did it one year, spent way more than I expected.
