Default Super Sleeper!!!

Ok ive been thinking about this a lot lately and i think its a great idea. First off anyone who wants to make their car into a super sleeper must do the following:
Follow my ideas religously
Say im a super cool person
Actually do what i say

1.Ok its known by everyone that fast cars have spoilers. Why not put 3 or 4 spoilers on different places of your car. That would make it look UBER fast.
2. This is perhaps the best and most important part of my plan. Put a small decoy engine into your car. Then put your real 1600 horsepower engine in the trunk of your car. This will trick many people who would like to peek at your engine.

uhhhhhhhhhh

how about you get a cheap kit car of like, a lambo or something. make painstakingly OBVIOUS its a kit car, but have it be cool at the same time. have the window in the back that shows the mid placed engine, like, blacked out with tint. cant see it at all. have like, a tiny motorcylce engine placed under the hood of the car. like an old busted up 250cc dirtbike motor or something. they wanna see it, no problem.

then when you race you got your 502 big block crate engine in the back, start it up, let them get a bit ahea dof you, hit the rpms to 3500, thus engaging the twin turbos, and smoke his ass.

would only cost you about, 20-30 grand. and thats mainly for the kit car.

yes, both engine have to be functional. but the thing is, the wussy engine, it just has to run. the ony thing it will function is like, an alternator or something if you want.

no, if the decoy engine was functional then that would use up too much gas

uh, no

i said have a 250cc dirt bike engine as the one people look at. that useing like, nothing,. get like, 120 mpg with those.

502 with twin turbos? youd be lucky to get 8 mpg.

realistacally youd only get like, 6. too much gas, haha

I think having a sleeper is one thing, but spending so much money just to fool others is just ridiculous...to me a sleeper is just basically any car that's really quick on its feet but doesnt look like it at all

That didn't make any sense. If you're trying to be a sleeper, why would you give hints to how car your fast is with dumb spoilers?

This thread made everyone who read it just a little bit dumber.

*** that. I got my own plan.

1) put a sweet bodykit - Increases aerodynamics making your car twice as fast!!!
2) Take the exhaust off - less backpressure, MORE POWER!!!

And just imagine! If you put Mugen stickers on your Veyron, it could hit 400mp/h and put out 2000fwhp

if i were to have a project car, it would be a first generation Miata with some Ford V6 or V8 dropped in it, then id have it supercharged. then i'd gut it and keep it as a track car. 2,000-5,000 for the car, 2,000 for the engine, 1,500 for the supercharger, 500-1,000 suspension, maybe another 500 for the tranny. that means a crazy fast car for 5,000-10,000. pretty good deal eh?
