Haha! Doesn't he know, lower compression is better for turbo/superchargers? Higher compressions r for n/a.

Do you guys ever try to describe to others why your car isn't "a lancer"? I try to explain why mine isn't an evo, to people who don't know much about cars...typically a losing battle. "but, you turbo'd yours...so it's an evo now?"

My friend said to me " Sounds like a whale is jumping in the water making splashed every time you accelerate." She started calling my car splash ever since then.

Co workers: "What's an Evo?"

Me: "A Mitsubishi Lancer"

Co worker: "Oh why would you buy a lancer, your cobalt was nicer than a lancer"



how is it that so many people have never heard of an Evo?

I have been around cars my whole life, my mom has most of her life as well. She doesn't know a lot about them, but she likes to go fast. I was giving her a ride in the Evo on kill mode when we pulled off the highway. At that point I was driving normal and she looks over and says "your car stopped sneezing" I then told her I wasn't getting into boost and the BOV wasn't venting any air. Made me laugh simply because she said it was sneezing. She used to say that when she rode in my 300zx TT as well.
