a blower through the hood is cool on a drag car, on a street car it's gaudy (and not really drivable) it kills the lines of the car

if you see a car driving down the road with a blower sticking out of the hood, its cool. if i see one im like ****! i dotn really know anyone else who thinks its gaudy. 24 inch spinners are gaudy.

it was cool in the 80's with the whole pro street thing, now clean is cool, the whole engine is supposed to stay under the hood and should run better than those blown engines for street duty (I've seen a few magazine articles talking about blowers being gaudy on street vehicles)basically a car that can't be driven on the street easily (those blowers are horrible on the street) and underperforms at the track (the street trim unit sucks, and the race one the car is not drivable) cars are supposed to turn, and the blower blocks view in turns
