Question Sand!?

I heard somewhere that if you put a little sand in the intake it works as a backyard bore-out. Is that true or was someone just ******' with me? It seems a little ridiculous....

this is funny...

this forum got bad press because of this - some nit-wit zipperneck did that and posted it here. Made us all look like retards... lol...

The funny thing is that the engine seized up in seconds and died.

But give it a go and if you film it put it up on Audizine.com

That's what I thought. I'm just a little desperate for power upgrades for my 2.8 since, you know, there are none. After I get back from Air Force basic I think I'm gonna get a port-and-polish job.
