Nut,

Are we supposed to guess what you saw or heard? Or just supposed to think you were abducted by aliens and having a hard time making yourself understood?

How was it out at Area 51, today? Spotted an Aurora, did you?

This thread came up a couple weeks ago. Why bother with a real turbocharger when you can get the sound for only ¥38800 (US$328).

Who would want to deliberately make their car sound like a Turbo? My apologies to my most excellent and fast Turbo friends, but on the throtle, those cars sound like ripping silk. I prefer the roar of a normally aspirated engine.
