I read that GM forum one earlier today on another forum, it's spreading really quickly

The Audi 'port polish' one was posted here before.

It is people like those idiots that shouldn't be aloud exist on this planet.

I'm giggling like silly girl

I see much potential for a closed loop internal combustion engine myself.

I'll admit I don't know much about turbos or even cars so I don't know the technical reason it won't work

Don't realy want to know either but it isn't obvious to everyone.

lol at putting sand in the engine though

The first one, the one with the sand into the intake is a hoax, not sure about the closed look combustion though

Seth Brundle · 15-11-2007 10:42pm

@ micmclo - putting it simply, the standard internal combustion engine works by mixing air and fuel, sending it into the engine where it combusts and the remains are expelled through the exhaust. This guy thinks that he can just permanently recycle the exhaust fumes without using any fuel/air mixture in the first place.
To make it even worse he thinks that there will be a performance gain from ruining his engine!

Does anyone know where I can find the thread about the VW Golf (IIRC) owner who thought his car would look better by painting his brake calipers - and discs?

mikemac · 15-11-2007 10:43pm

Thanks for the helpful explanation

I think they're both wind-ups, TBH.

jayok · 15-11-2007 10:47pm

Well I laughed hard for about 10 mins... this should be in the humour section

Hmm, I don't know, it is America after all.

BMW's new Efficient Dynamics? A simple introduction across the fleet?

Max_Damage · 15-11-2007 10:54pm

From that forum:

Even Toyota owners are laughing

I'd wager the people laughing the hardest are the ones who started the threads.:)

CrowdedHouse · 15-11-2007 11:55pm

We can't talk..there was someone on this forum tonight didn't know what his front fog light was or how to use it.Probably thinks it's Ok to drive on his own as well.
