apexhntr...IF you are a genuine member, my humble apologies and I owe you a beer.

The way you come on here without an intoduction, and asking about a "joke" and an inferior product that has been proven NOT to work....you do seem like a spammer. The way you use your words strategically about the product is just suspicious.

You know what? I still have doubts...time will tell, I'm sorry but I have seen many spamming activity just like this, I also hope I'm wrong about you.

Oh btw...don't "WTF" me, be a gentleman. If someone walked straight into your house and said the same thing you did, "Turbonator", without an introduction or a HI, what would you think?? And FYI, I do not have superiority here, there are too many above me.

Turbonator might fit these:

1968 Honda Z50
1970 Honda CT70
1975 Honda TL250 trials
2004 KTM 950 Adventure
2005 Montesa 4RT
2006 KTM EXC 450 racing
2007 MS4RS

x 100

by the way if you are a new "member" introduce yourself WITH PICTURES please

I know all P-cars look alike...but it is kind of nice. I didn't see any harm in the turbonater question to be honest.

Funny thing is that I have a few "Popular Mechanics" magazines from 1942/43 and in the back, there are ads for an identical product. Hard to believe it's been around that long. Btw, the ad was right next to the one for X-ray specs.

Did I mention the 996 and the 986 are due for an OIL change? Any suggestions on interval or weight?

OK, I am a car nut so that is why I joined in. I actually do have thick skin but having worked in a NY county hospital sometimes you have to throw it back when someone reads you wrong. That being said the C4S has 33K miles and has been to 4 track days. The C4S has Sirius radio hard wired into the becker head unit, full carbon fiber, dansk headers, sport exhaust/cut out switch, rear spoiler activation utilizes the turbo dash switch, turbo front spoiler, chrome turbo twist wheels, hard wired beartracker scanner, escort SRX radar detector/laser jammer, hidden garage door opener window tint and 3M clear bra.

As has been discovered there are also some bikes in the garage as well. I hope to inquire about chip tuning but will let that go for another time. No hard feelings towards CosmosC4S and Ray S. The photo is not the best but its pretty late. Hope to get to know you folks better soon.

Ok, the "Turbonator" serves as an obstruction in the intake and little else. Any obstruction placed in an intake will reduce the volume of air available to the motor, hence it's BS.

"NO REPRESENTATION IS BEING MADE THAT ANY PARTICULAR VEHICLE AND DRIVER WILL OR IS LIKELY TO ACHIEVE GAINS IN HORSEPOWER OR FUEL EFFICIENCY SIMILAR TO THOSE REPORTED BY PREVIOUS CUSTOMERS.

Nice!

Guys, I'm sorry I got to this "party" so late. Yesterday was a 14-hour workday and was too tired to join in the fun!

I guess it is a little late for the "TIM-INATOR" to harass a "newbie" for no intro or pics!

APEXHNTR - Welcome to Rennlist, the best Porsche site on the 'net! Thanks for the intro and thanks for sharing the pic of your nice looking P-car!

I also want to apologize for my fellow Rennlisters that haven't mastered the art of properly welcoming "newbies" like I have. Usually I just mention something very low key like "an intro would be nice" and "we would like to see pics of your car." Here is a sample of a warm welcome I gave to another "newbie" recently.

WHAT??? No intro and no pics??? WTF - do you think you are on a BMW site?? Come on, "NEWBIE" introduce yourself and post some %)^&$*!% PICS!

See, that wasn't so bad, was it? BTW - just in case you can't tell, this is all in jest! I do have a reputation to uphold!

APEXHNTR - Seriously, welcome to Rennlist. We really ARE a bunch of good guys and gals!
