| Tom’s
Car. |
Let
me preface this description by saying that I am not a fan
of front
wheel drive cars. I’m
not quite as bigoted against
them as Ash, but I don’t like how
they handle as compared
to rear and all wheel drive cars. That said, if you like the
way front wheel drive cars handle,
the RSX is a very good
car. Tom’s
exterior modifications consist primarily of decals
describing what
he’s done under the hood of the car.
The
car has been lowered slightly, and fitted with lighter
rims. A
short ram air intake has replaced the factory air box,
leading through to a high flow muffler on the other end.
Tom’s most recent modification has been the addition of
NOS,
giving him a 50hp boost on demand.
To be perfectly
honest, you couldn’t pay me enough to put
nitrous in my car,
but by the same token, there are people swear by
it. |
