Obviously, from judging the amoung of piping, the bends, and approximating the length of all tubing, Kris can only be building one thing. A giant metal bong for two! The Jeg's box has one of those fake electrical turbos, for easier operation, and the box underneath has to have the part where hes gonna fill it up with water, and the honda box just has a bunch of emblems so he can pimp his bong with "3.5 Type-Stoned"

Congrats on the engagement - I just got married myself in October.

On a semi - related note... I have figured it out.


You're making the burner bigger so you can do the 3.5 swap and get married.

I take it you have the boxes because you did not choose the boat.

Sales guy:"You could have the boat, or the mystery BOX!"
Fiance: "fsttyms1, just take the boat."
fsttyms1: " but fiance, anything could be in the mystery box, even a boat, and you know we've always wanted one of those."
