It's an afterburner. Burns rice, but an afterburner nonetheless...

You guys know it's the size that matters, LOL.
Must at at least 50 hp to the wheels.

ehh...i think you're being too kind. dynos have proven that exhaust pipes 12'' and bigger produce tremendous results. ANY good car buff knows this is the best proven way to see sub 10 second times during quarter mile runs.

Talking

Several other angles of that lovely car plus multiple other vehicular atrocities at www.beaterz.com . Hilarious pix, even funnier commentary.

Someone needs to stick a big watermelon in that thing and plug it.

Though the appropriate thing to use would be a BIG LEMON.
