| Fire extinguishers?? why do you need a fire extinguisher in you car? thats just ricer to me. Like your car is just going to burst into flames? WELL IT WILL!!!!!! I used to think fire extinguisher was just a ricer fad and I used to laugh at cars that had fire extinguishers. "ha-ha look at that Honda with the $%^&#@* extinguisher...ha-ha" you know... And maybe once it was just a fad for some "import tuners" But one day shortly after my 1st TT conversion. There was a major oil leak on the passenger turbo. I parked my car in the garage smoke was coming from under the hood, quickly I popped it for a closer look. The bay was very hot and oil must of been leaking quit a bit. I remember it like yesterday. The passenger turbo bursted into flames, I freaked out and the first thing I saw and grabbed was the cat water. Luckily it didn't get worse. It would of been nicer and safer to of had an extinguisher... Cold water on hot parts cant be good. I posted this when it happened.... After dissembling the motor turned out half of the oil lines to the turbos were clogged, I figured it got backed up and cause a leak? Anyhow im lucky it didn't harm my wiring harness or anything else valuable. Anyhow I just wanted to tell my little story on why I believe in fire extinguishers in cars. After having put so much money and work into a car its not a bad idea to have one accessible in the vehicle. If someone wants to make fun of me and call it rice then oh well, my car did catch on fire once....
