This is a normal post There's one of those cunting cars on my street
The cunt who owns it goes to work at 5:30 in the morning. His cunt exhaust must wake up the whole street as he lets the engine warm up.

The question (at 5:45am) is, what do I use to block the chrome scaffold pipe he uses as an exhaust? Should I use cavity wall filler, no more nails or a potato? Should I go to the added trouble of setting a biro tube or kazoo through the centre?

This is a normal post Some ignorant cunt was visiting a neighbouring home at irregular intervals.
Fortunately it only happened four or five times as it was driving me into a murderous rage. Will make a mental note of cavity filler in case he makes a reappearance.

This is a normal post Most probably an idiot
A well sorted highly turboed car should be near silent at idle.
This a combination of the massive damping effect the turbo has and the lowered compression needed to run big boost.

That being said, he might be running a constant RPM setup, in that case it's either a boat or a power station and you urgently need new glasses.

This is a normal post An idiot, as opposed to what? The guy in the above video?
I think the exhaust noise is worse when he's got a parked car behind him reflecting the god-awful dubstep-loop racket.

This is a normal post As opposed to someone who has interrest in engineering and expresses it with cars
In another video, at a drag strip (thusly without ANY muffler), it's not obnoxious, because it's been done right.

In my book, anybody who can't build a motor that can idle properly is a wanker.
I've heard 50cc's that make more noise at a red light than a 3L F1 at idle FFS...

As a side not, we are mounting the turbos on our boat today.
Just the housing for the compressor is already about as heavy as that Golf.

This is a normal post If you drove your boat on public roads I'd think the worse of you too

This is a normal post We had exactly the same problem years ago in mine
So confronted the guy and told him the noise his car makes was unacceptable, especially before even kids are awake. He moved

This is a normal post What about odd kids? Do they sleep better?
I don't know where he actually lives, so to confront him I'd have to leap out of bed and throw myself across his windscreen in my yukata and slippers.
