Kart Boy and his weird promotional Items

Monday I had purchased some Kart Boy exhaust hangers. Good deal, $40 and then $3 shipping. I am replacing my exhaust this weekend with a New Redesigned Buschur Turbo Back system, I cannot wait.

Anyways today I get my Kart Boy Exhaust Hangers, small box, nothing alarming.


BUT WHAT'S THIS, OMG!!!

As I open the box, LOW and BEHOLD there is, included, no extra charge, free, with out ANY WARNING, get this.....
































A FREE ATOMIC FIREBALL!!!!!!!! WOW. When did you guys team up with the nice people at Ferrara Pan to distribute Atomic Fire ***** with Performance Car parts? Amazing. I am enjoying my fireball as we speak. Mmmmmmm Exhaust Hangers and Atomic Fire *****, thanks man


All I know is.....

+

I just got my hangers 2 days ago. and yes, fireballs. pretty sweet.

a little note for the hangers, have a friend around for help. you are gonna need some muscle to wrestle the pipes in place. what a stiff, quality product.

got mine from kartboy.com - they came with 5 of them. at first, ithought they were 2 small and wud never fit. turns out, you just got to man-handle them into place. i am very impressed, no more dp rattle.

silicon grease spray to lube up both the stock rubber ones and kartboy's so you can get it over the knob on the hanger. surprisingly, the kartboy's were easier to get over the knobs.

on the dp, thread the bolts first, then force over knob attached to the car (sounds like a no-brainer, but i tried for a 1/2 hr the other way with no luck). after on dp hanger, i had to use a pry bar to force the pipe over to the other hanger. after a few go on, it is STIFF - so force is needed to put the last 1 or 2 on.

lube always makes the rubber go over the knob better

eheh Tom at Kartboy is just awesome. He's been putting candy in with his orders since I can remember. I've known him for a while and I remember on my first order (bushings for my mazda mp3) he included some smarties and pixie sticks I think lol

But yes, GREAT products!!!
