WTF GENPU
 

Listen to this guy's explanation of a turbo, an intercooler and why it's good to have one...................................


*EDIT*
Fuck it continues...

Lmao... the guy in the flannel shirt also has a video review of the car and its just about as funny as this one.

freon?

hot air through a turbo?

3psi?

high performance vehicle?

it's heavier and not a high performance vehicle?

FUCK FIRESTONE COMPLETE AUTO CARE

seems logical, hes a service manager so he must know how it works

Hes going WOT at 80 under 3k RPMs. How the fuck?

Kinda makes me depressed knowing there are people out there like this. The sad thing is I know some technicians at work like this. (I work for BMW as a tech)

Someone forward this to Firestone Corporate Offices

800 543 7522 - corporate

800 367 3872 - retail store comments

I sent them an email, I'll call up tomorrow during "work hours"

the fuck is this shit

man this guy contradicted what i've learned so far about turbo's...intercooler is cooled by freon, air is rammed through the intercooler to the turbo at 3 psi...so intercooler first then turbo? i thought it was the other way around...damn msf teaching me wrong shit.

where can i get freon for my intercooler, need to lower my bat's.

+1.

The guys at firestone don't know their head from their ass. This guy may will tell you one thing and the service manager down the street will tell you that your intercooler is there to make your air conditioner more efficient during the hot summer months. In addition to not knowing anything about vehicles in general, they also know next to nothing about tires.

That fucker's going WOT from 6th. Buh-bye engine

I am honestly speechless.


Tapawhat?

and thank u firestone for reminding me why i work on my own shit

QFT

Honestly, my last oil change was done at Firestone last month. Had a great deal (paid $40) for an oil change and filter, synthetic Kendall. After seeing this I will never step foot inside of a Firestone ever again. They should stick to tires (fuck they can't even do those too well, huh). I am emailing corporate and calling tomorrow to let them know how disgusted I am with that video. Let me put it this way. I work on computers at work. If I walked into the supply section and started pretending to know shit about supply, I would expect a punch in the head. It would be justified, and I would walk out not being surprised. Firestone needs that punch in the head.

The second video is just fucking dumb. Bigger rotors just for heat dissipation?? What about better braking because of larger surface?

The third guy isn't that bad.

EDIT: In the first video you can see the host is confused, like "what the fuck is this guy saying..." lol

How can you know so little about something that you do for a living :lame:

Ehh, the guy was right to an extent. But he is still stupid.


Tapawhat?

The only reason I go to Firestone is because they have the only in-ground alignment machine I can get my car on, so I have a lifetime alignment through them...But I've had a similar-type experience there, with them recommending all kinds of services I needed done that I obviously didn't need.

I dunno what to do now.

My wife's 300 has the lifetime alignment service. Looks like she will be going there alone lol nah they're just not touching my car anymore.

oh my god... i worked for Sears Auto Center straight out of high school as a tech and we used to always make fun of firestone because of the customers that would come from there talking about how stupid they were

i never thought it was this bad

Anyone in Missouri want to help raise money for a Alignment Rack?

I really dont see what everyone is bitching at everything he said was correct besides the feon part which does play a part in the car. He said 3psi will give you more HP which it will. Bunch of spazzes in here lol.

For the record the local firestone is the only "common car" place I'd take my car too. Several of my friends work there and the master technician could take any engine apart with his hands and totally rebuild it. Maybe I'm lucky but I like Firestone they've always been good to my families cars

Go to Craven Performance

Its in his face and how he talks. He clearly has no idea what hes talking about and is literally spewing bullshit from his mouth.

Q: How does the turbo work?
A: Well you got this intercooler here that gets mass airflow. Works like a ram air.

THE INTERCOOLER IS ACTUALLY COOLED BY FREON:rocketwhore:

He then continues with

"when it forces through the turbo, the turbo gives you boost"

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU:rocketwhore:

Also, This asshole taught you that when you mash the gas the end result is more revolutions.

.

If you run hot air through the turbo you're not going to get any kind of power.

You get bigger brakes to dissipate heat eyyyyy?

um dur! its not the bigger gripping surface or anything. pshh slotted and drilled brakes are pointless... unless!! i got it! they help gripping!

Why would you go bigger tho? More weight! You need to get some freon, thats what real race cars use

Glad I watched this .. I thought my intercooler low freon light was on .... DOH!

first video got removed, guess someone got through to Firestone Corporate.

It's there with the common videos when you watch the brakes one.
I called them names.

reminds me of this shit for some reason

i dont even like the alignments they do.. they aligned my pu before i got rid of it (the massive toe issue from the factory).. it started pulling to the right, very noticably.. and that was after i told them i dont want/need the car to pull to the right at all.. it was pretty str8 from the factory (maybe the toe-in had something to do with that).. but i wont be take the ms6 there..

Probably me or Punjabiplaya

I don't see the big deal, he's your average Genpu owner. Doesn't know dick about his car and loves LEDs and carbon fiber vinyl.

Seeing how the owner has absolutely no idea either, id say it worked out quite well for both ends.

Maybe the genpu guy was a good actor.




A REALLY good actor.
