That would explain why you still are missing the point. It's not the joke, it's the fact that the guy you were talking to HAS a turbo.

Wakie wakie, eggs and bakie.

Lmao. That cracked me up. I still randomly say "I know nothing" like Sgt Shultz. My kids think I'm an idiot. They are probably right.

My younger cousin had a bunch of those "wrestling dolls" don't know what else to call them. WWF was entertaining back then when I was young. Haven't watched/followed since the 80's. But that video took me back there.

I can't for the life of me understand why people bother with turbo kits on stock, block Fox bodies?

They're twice the price of a tried and true centrifugal supercharger (Paxton, Vortech, ATI....pick one). Three times as complex, far more involved to install, NEVER a direct bolt on, always perform inconsistently and can be a real pain in the ass to tune.

Any of the above mentioned blower companies produce kits more than capable of producing power levels that far exceed the strength of the stock block. The fact that they also all now build self contained kits that require no additional oil lines to plumb makes them even more attractive.

.....yet guys still allow themselves to be brainwashed into thinking that "turbo" is the only way to go.
