beater Posted April 30, 2009 Report Share Posted April 30, 2009 was telling me that I should bend my wastegate and I will get more boost? I'm not the type of guy who will just do what the dude at advanced auto parts suggests, ive yet to google this but have any of you guys heard of this? he pointed it out and said "see that right there just pull up and bend it, youll double your boost" then he gave me some long story about how he did it to his buddys car etc... but yeah I am new to the world of turbo's and coolness and this sounded kinda redneck haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Bruh Posted April 30, 2009 Report Share Posted April 30, 2009 I did it and trippled my boost. it was awsome j.k. no dont do it! Buy a different wastegate with a bigger diaphram and a bigger spring! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sol740 Posted April 30, 2009 Report Share Posted April 30, 2009 I have a device that you put in your intake and instead of obeying the laws of aerodynamics, it actually IGNORES THEM COMPLETELY and makes your car faster. A welcome side effect is fuller, and longer lasting erections. (erections lasting longer than 4 hours should be videotaped and bragged about) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stimmel1647545512 Posted April 30, 2009 Report Share Posted April 30, 2009 this guy at advance auto parts who said he was a mechanic at ford for 22 years told me that my car was an 88 (which it is) because only the 88 mustang gt cars had the side scoops in front of the front and rear wheels not the 87 or 89 or 90-93 thats how smart some of those guys are, all 87-93 mustang gt's had the scoops I looked at him and said "no sir thats incorrect you knew my car is an 88 because I come in here 12 times a day".

rockt.talon Posted April 30, 2009 Report Share Posted April 30, 2009 just remember your parts house is just that, they sell parts and most of the time give bad advice, (because they sell parts, not fix cars). unless you come to my job (advance auto parts) in bowling green kentucky. we know what we are talking about. 5 of us have heavily modified cars pushing lots of boost.
