Default Turbonetics Video #1

Hey everyone, I was able to get a video camera and take it out to shoot a small amount of video this weekend.

I met my friend at his work and we did some drive-bys on the roof of the empty parking garage there. There wasn't much room to work with, and the audio doesn't sound THAT great (the car sounds a lot better in person), but I think it's the best video we've seen of the kit so far. Also, I'm thinking of investing in a tripod.

Hopefully soon I can take it out on the highway or the strip and get some better video, but in the meantime this should work...

This is the large version (26mb), please right click on the link and Save As.

Thanks for the video! That blow off valve sounds pretty good on your video. Certainly no hiding you have a turbo kit with it

Thanks! That was a good part of the reason to shoot the video. Some people are saying that the raptor sounds like a turkey call. Just wanted to let everyone know what a properly installed raptor sounds like.

Mine is getting 466kb/sec. It's my friend's gaming site that has unmetered bandwidth. Shouldn't be an issue...

That really wasn't an effect. We just suck at using the video camera.

You need the Divx codec installed.

Divx will work, but it was encoded with Xvid, which is a compatible codec. I prefer Koepi's Xvid codec. You can get it for windows XP here:
