zip ties or duck tape, super glue is the best

Yeah...I need to get some zip ties for it. That way I can really secure it!!! BTW I didn't paint it so that the paint didn't add weight to the car

lol this cracks me up...I actually saw some Honda kid with one of those ebay turbonators crammed up his exhaust. The kid thought he was cool when he pulled up next to me revving up his engine. Needless to say he was driving an 86 Honda Civic HB that had VTEC on the side of it and it was rust primered. He tried to gun it at the stoplight and stalled it. I just looked over at him and laughed hysterically and drove away while he sat there in shame. Hard to believe but there are people out there that will buy those things. Almost as bad as those vortex things that you put into the air intake, supposedly to add more Hp and more MPG...another big waste of time and effort. Gah, I think I have managed to rattle on long enough now. Also did you know that the zip-ties and duct tape you have on your car you are actually saving weight by not having metal parts there?

Rust adds HP also right? If that's the case my whole underbody is a HP mechanism waiting to be tapped.
