Jimbo raised the intercooler and tried some coroplast hood scoops.

Rather, one hood scoop, but forward, backward, and sideways, because his friend wanted to embarrass him.

He has some duct tape on the scoop, so I thought he would use that to attach it, but he used sheet metal screws, which means that he put another 4 holes in his hood when he installed it sideways as a joke!

He kept saying "For those of you who didn't pay attention" and "Pay attention!"

The last time I responded to dozens of comments pointing out what he had said and done in that and previous videos.

He said that everyone wants the intercooler installed behind the grill, where they normally go, but that would require too much fabrication, and regardless of what happens, the Saturn will go to the junkyard before the summer is over.

The car runs and drives!

What a waste!

He reminded us that his exhaust temperatures dropped 50°F once he installed the intercooler, but it didn't change anything else, and the conventional hood scoop improved a symptom, but not the root problem.

I don't remember the specific terms, though. I will edit this if I come across it without rewatching the video just for it. There are currently 379 comments.

How many are stupid and how long will it take me to read them?
