Well both are great intake systems..So couldnt go wrong with either..But if you dont want to spend that much money on name brand..Buy a ebay kit, Blox velocity ring and filter..Have read good things and cost would be half of aem or weapon R....Will say I like the AEM better but thats just my opinion..Look at competion engineering now called CT engineering thats the company I would buy from plan on buying from

But anyway....sweet video. I don't know what is more annoying, fart cans or ridiculous wings.

The issue with the wagon happened to Frank. I guess they were rounding a blind corner with a double line, the guy passed Frank and had to dive in front of him to avoid a car and he threw rocks all over the front of Frank's car in the process.

Stainless steel won't rust. There are plenty of brake upgrades, probably especially for honda's. But that sounds like a discussion for the brake section.

Like Molly said, we were behind him for quite some time and he wasn't doing anything wrong. There was a time right at the beginning, right after Redlodge where everyone was passing everyone it seemed, so maybe something happened there. Either way, mistakes happened and nobody got hurt or had their car get hit, and he apologized for whatever happened. His car is definitely badass and he was driving like everyone else was on the fun part.
Just a couple of problems with that statement, he drove like an ASS and wound up breaking my windshield when he Had to pass three car and came into a tight blind corner doing at least 90 with an oncoming car coming around the corner, so he jammed in front of me and almost went off the road doing so. He made me stand on the binders preety hard, but that didn't stop all the rocks he threw at me from breaking my windshield. So I got up beside him to say something and all he did was put up his hand like "Oh well" and he never said shit all day to me about it. Well FUCK him. I even mentioned it to him at Redlodge on the way back and he didn't say a word... Again, FUCK him. The next time he will pay for it one way or another. A "Sorry" would have gone a long way.
His lack of driving skills cost me money.

Which is the exact thing you were doing on my buddy's escort. Its a daily driven show car basically. He has put a ton of time and creative work into that thing and what does he want? Nothing more than for people to say "dang that is alot of custom work" even if it might not be what they are into. So even though the cars int the video are pretty ridiculous, it all boils down to the point as to what you like and what you are into. And its sad to say that some people are into things like that. And its not just IMPORTS, HATE the word ricer, people do it to other cars as well like the mustang that was posted. So just like Shawn said, this isnt the place for ragging on cars you just simply dont like, so keep it to yourself

I don't mean all look bad. Some have good taste but some are just overwhelming and ridiculous.
I'm korean and drive a honda. Going to what some call "RICE" it out alittle. change the lights....type r spoiler, 5% tint, different rims. Anyone should be offended it should be me....someone asian who eats rice and drive's a honda. And flat I don't care.
You can also tell who is a ricer by how they drive. Up on everyone's ass, rev alot, crazy lights, massive blaring soundsystems, chrome wheels, millions of chrome emblems and stickers galore...3 different color schemes...2 or 4 exhausts.
and hence you did say "SAD TO SAY THAT SOME PEOPLE ARE INTO THINGS LIKE THAT"...
my point proven lol. Many have talked to ricers....and it's pretty sad their kwowledge basis and trying to prove to everyone their car is fast and handles great.
...
Now i have alot of respect for low-riders and the work they put into those cars. Those are show cars.

The only thing I said about your friends Escort is he could have put more time into the motor, I don't know why that is so hard to understand. If you would like to PM me about this, we can discuss this there, but I'm not going to litter this thread with this.

I'm sorry to hear about your windshield but he wasn't the only one driving like that. In fact, I would say he was in the majority. Now I'm not justifying it at all because if it were me, I would have offered to have it fixed or whatever.
Also, he did apologize to the entire group when we stopped between Red Lodge and Cooke City. If you have that much of a problem you should try to get in touch with him and ask him to pay for the damage.

When you go on a drive like this....and with the kind of cars and drivers....it's too be expect something will happen. The guy should have had a better attitude about it and sorry it happened.
I was almost reared ended several times by a greyish wrx. sure anyone would be pissed but also it takes two to resolve a dilemma. One person can make the situation boil over more....or simmer it down. just my two bits.

If that would have happened in my car the outcome would have been much different and that is all I am going to say. BTW, no one has mentioned who this person is yet. A couple people seem to be supporting him, so I assuming he is known. WHO IS HE!? Is he a part of MAEC or is he part of Big Sky Subaru?

I just want to know who this guy is. I have never seen the vehicle before.
Also, why would you take a blind corner at 90mph? SERIOUSLY!! I am sorry, but this guy has no brain. Think about the poor person coming from the other direction or Frank being he had to let him in, they were probably shitting their pants. I feel no remorse for bad drivers, I hate them!

He lives in Bozeman for sure. I saw him roughly a week or two before the BTR at a gas station here. I don't know his name or anything though. All I know is it's a 2 tone bugeye wagon with antigrn as the license plate.

That is how it is every year, there are 2 or 3 people that just F the entire day up. I have gone the last 4 years and this is the first time I have missed the meet. After hearing about the driving I am not too upset. 90% of the time I would be the very last car in the group for this reason.
