I was talking to a guy at work the other day who doesn't know what hes talking about, but i didn't have the heart to tell him hes an idiot.

Like i need cermaic headers for nitrous. And he has a friend that is running a 150 shot on a stock civic, and hes taken 3 mustangs right off the line spraying.....

I was like alright...

As for the stupidest thing I've ever heard...that's a long list...I used to watch High Rev Tuners. Once out at some street races years ago some kid came up and asked me if I wanted to race...race his Civic EX. I popped my hood and told him there's no way he was gonna win. His response was "I'll wax ya man...my engine's blown too". So we lined up and I left him like he was in reverse. I turned around and asked him what went wrong since I hadn't been "waxed" yet. Apparently he thought one of those little Tornado intake inserts qualified him for "blown" status.

this is actually interesting. Is a reed valve standard equipment? I read the description, but I want to know more. What is the advantage to something like this? Is pressure escaping out the front end a real problem in car engines?

Reed valves are pretty old hat...they're often used in place of a small displacement 2 or 4 stroke engine. You want something REALLY interesting? Check out a Coates Spherical Valve engine. Wicked cool shit.
