    Ok so that was kinda a mean thread title. Someone gave me one of those turbo whistler things. It's supposed to sound like a blow off valve. So I stuck it on the taco. I won't even bother with a video clip... you can't ever hear it. I heard it once when I had all the windows open and no radio and was really on the gas. Here's a few pics

    Anyone else have one? I'm guessing it doesn't work because of the bend in the tail pipe. I've tried it in about every possible position around the pipe and still nothing.

    Just take it off...there was a stupid craze around town here one year when people was buying whislters for their tail pipe...
    So when you gas it, it makes a loud whislting, annoying sound and they thought it was so cool...
