Don't lump me in with them. I'm an enthusiast of mechanic design, be it engines, weaponry, or productive machinery. Not a guy with a wrench that reads the marketing garbage AFE/insert other "enthusiast" brand that can't legally warranty half of their products.

 

I fail to see a correlation between people screeching variations of "forced induction is more efficient!!! Reclaimed energy!!!" and anything I've said.

If you can't be civil. Please leave

 

Edit. That goes for everyone in the thread

Agreed. I need three buttons. Play/pause, skip, and back. Then the volume knob. Other than that it might as well not have them. The only other thing I might need is an EQ but I messed with that once and left it on Flat, and then turned the gain up on my amp for the sub.

Volume knob is a must.

Finding any stereo even double and single din that doesn't look tacky is not easy regardless though :/

gosh I wish cars were as cheap as bikes sometimes xD

$3000 in the car world gets you a white turd (I.e. My car)

But $3000 in the bike world and you can get something Very nice and even makes some people jealous lol

I thought about getting a Focus RS. The dealer markup around here is pretty bad though. I like the size of the Fiesta better though, so I think I'd be more interested in an RS version of that car.

LOL I should get my friend to literally just speak garbage to me in the passenger seat and record the thing and put it on YouTube. That would be hilarious.

Usually not cheap. You see a lot of the "streetfighter" styled bikes because people drop their bikes and don't want to pay for new fairings.
