I just want to know one thing: what octane booster/ funny potion is going to give me 30 hp, cause if i missed the boat on that product..I need to hop on.

Seriously though, where did you get 120hp from? Did you just add up all the suggested hp gains from the manufacturers based on your mods? Or do you have some dyno sheets?

1993

but I did let a friend attempt to apply metal flake green paint to my Volkswagen Quantum, I was going for a It Was a Good Day look thanks to Ice Cube's video

however I ended up with a more Incredible Hulk bright green plasticy look, it was really bad

My 98 is tough to chase
If you're on my tail - better watch your face
Smoke is comin' when I burn
Rubber when my wheels turn
A tinted window - so super bad
Lookin' like the car the Green Hornet had

sounds like someone has been reading the promo material for intakes/mufflers claiming 15HP gains... they dont mention it was on a mustang with forced induction!!
