EPIC Failure!!!
Oh...my...gawd...I never thought anyone could be this stupid...

Reverse? - Cobalt SS Network

If you can't get in at work, here is the original post:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Reverse?
So we all know that the supercharged engines need the intake bypass valve so they work in reverse. Otherwise the supercharger would just suck all the air out of the cylinder. So knowing that, how does the turbocharged version work in reverse? The engine is trying to suck air backwards, yet the turbo wants to spin forward so I don't see how it works. Is there some sort of exhausting intake bypass valve on the turbo version? Also, if it does have the valve, does that also mean that it can make boost in reverse? Like how much boost? Like 5 psi or does it go over 20?

Can anyone help me sort this out?

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Illusive says EPIC FAIL!

And if the original message wasn't EPIC enough, here he is on Page 2:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

wow, lots of replies already, thanks guys

Real reason I'm asking because a friend is getting a 93 Corvette and he wants to race me. I said we can race to 30 mph because I think if I go from reverse I'll get better weight transfer and beat him, but I'm concerned about making full boost since the turbocharger will be spinning backwards.

This just has to be a put-on, like the war between .Chico Escuela and sOx. Although there ARE people who are THAT stupid.

If he truly is kidding (probably), you have to either a) have one helluva imagination to come up with it, or b) smoking up a LOT!!!

Hahahahaha. I used to work with this guy who asked my sister in law to turn the turbo on in my her and my brothers WRX one day. This coming from a "self acclaimed" car guy.
