Seattle Cl-S

Ran into a younger guy in an SSM '01 CLS during lunch today. He was a few cars behind me at the light and I could tell he was looking to get close to me. I drove kinda slowly until he caught up and we caught a light together. We talked a little and he asked what I had done to the car. I told him 'Comptech blower' and he didn't really acknowledge it. He said he had a intake and revved his car. I knew that AEM sound immediately. Man I miss that growl. Anyway, light turns and, as expected, I put about 5 cars on him before the next light. He came up to me and said 'why is that thing so much faster than mine??' Duh!!!! I told him again, I have a supercharger. I guess 'blower' had confused him. Anyway, we got on the highway together and he tried to keep up on the on-ramp. Of course, no chance. He looked a little disappointed but damn, I never had a car like that at his age so he should feel lucky.

I know what you mean about missing the Aem sound. That's the one thing i miss about my car now. BUt it does feel good to smoke 99% of cars on the road.

sorry....i didn't know what a blower was. so really, why is your car so much faster than mine?

He was probably thinking "How can that CL-S beat me? It's not as loud as mine?"

Way to spank the youngster around. If he didn't know what a blower was, he found out the hard way.

As you know, the S/C is almost as quiet as stock. It's such a sleeper.

Nice kill, even if it's one of our own

Nice 13.6, when did you run that ?? Nice MPH

I know what you mean. In some ways, the stock exhaust was more fun - silent but deadly. I love the look on people's faces when you go blowing by.

He probaly just thought you were messing with him when you told him you had a comptech blower. Just like most of the kids that say they have turbo on there civic, yet when all they have is intake, header, and exhaust.

You've been away for a bit eh Glen? I ran that about 3 or 4 weeks ago. Ran that with the 19's and some 101/92 octane mix.

Mine and Steve's side by side on the highway sound like two completely different cars. I love the look of the '03 exhaust... and even to this day I sorta hate the resonance from my headers so there's no way I'd go with the b-pipe or a new cat back. 10-15whp with the S/C not worth the tradeoff IMO. Although my timeslips would probably argue otherwise.
