KaosBanshee44 Posted December 14, 2008 Report Posted December 14, 2008 Ok.. Easiest way to describe the difference between a tuner and and rice boy..Both are imports however one is actually modded and built for speed and handling.. Mods include things such as exhaust, turbo's, intercoolers, suspension componets for better handling, brakes ect.. Rice boys make the cars LOOK fast but usually have very little performance upgrades.. Their mods usually include body kits, spoilers, led washer squirters, exhaust TIP, cut coil springs, stickers... If there are any more confusions this should clear it up.. lol http://www.riceboypage.com/ RIPPEN That is so much the TRUTH it's not even funny, ok yeah it is but it's true. I hate when a ricer is next to me they sound like hammered dog shit. My buddy has a RX7 with TONS of motor mods and suspension mods. Thing hauls the mail. Another friend of mine has a honda hatchback that sits in his garage with about 10k worth of stuff done to the motor which also hauls the mail. I wish i had some pictures i'll try to locate some, maybe they have some on there myspace. Quote
