Supercharger and Divorce, or No supercharger

I recently told my wife I was seriously considering supercharging my Stang. She simply said go ahead and do it....If you want a divorce...

So in my head I thought through the options...

Supercharger and divorce
  • Wife gets half my money
  • I am single again=having a sex life again
  • split the parental responsability
  • SUPERCHARGED STANG
No Supercharger and stay married
  • Wife gets all my money
  • sex? whats that?
  • constant parental responsability
  • Naturally aspirated and still not supercharged stang
***this post is meant in a humorous manner and in no way am I actually considering divorce over a material object.

well, personally, I would have to tell myself that I'm going to miss her, but more power is more power. Then again, I like to fish too!!


Bye the Bye: On a side note: this IS THE 999,000th post!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hopefully, if she is like a lot of women she doesn't know that much about engines. Get the supercharger and don't tell her....she probably wouldn't know the difference. Just joking of course....or am I?

Yeah, I agree. And when you're explaining the $5k on your credit card, you can just grumble angrily about <insert made up car part here> under your breath.

As long as you don't accidentally say "supercharger" for <insert made up car part here>, I think you're fine. Try angrily mumbling "it was that **** rear differential shock bearing manifold housing selector... 1 in a 1000 chance... sorry babe, had to replace it. I have the worst luck, eh?"

She won't ask.

My wife gave up on that tactic... Mustangs ago. Take from experience, you get her jewelry or Swarovski and you'll get your S/C and prehaps
some unexpected show of gratitude.

Remember, there's the bull and then there's the bull fighter.

I'm the other one--with kids involved you'd be paying for it for years to come. Get it & put it on plastic with the understanding that after its paid off you'll get something for her or that trip to the Caymans or <insert vacation spot here> after sending the munchkins off to grandma's. Sounds like a win-win to me, guess thats why I'm still single

I wouldnt marry a person who doesnt understand my obsession for my Mustang. If she doesnt like me spending money on her(the Mustang), then the woman will not be happy with me. lol

My wife threatened the same thing, but sang a different time when 2 big vortech boxes showed up!

I don't play the threat game
