- If you guys aren't familiar with wish.com
it's basically cheaper, weirder Amazon.
Today we're gonna be testing some of the dumbest
car accessories that we could find on wish.com
and determine is it a scam
or is it the jam?
I'm joined by my boy, Zach Jobe.
I'm James
and that is an airplane. (airplane engine roaring)
We're outside today because Nolan is using the studio.
This is the D-List.
- Thank you once again to our friends at Omaze
for sponsoring today's video.
You guys know we like partnering with Omaze,
because they give you guys a chance to win the sickest cars.
Kind of like this one.
(car engine roaring)
One of you has the chance to win this limited edition,
10th anniversary, Mustang RTR spec five,
with taxes and shipping included.
Just head to omaze.com/mustang
and when I say limited edition,
I mean there's only 10 of these,
designed and engineered by RTR.
Oh, I'm sorry, that's not enough for you?
Well how about this?
Omaze gives you VIP access to hang out with our boy
Vaughn Gittin Jr. and his championship winning team,
at the formula drift event of your choice through 2022.
This Mustang RTR packs a supercharged coyote V8,
pumping 750 horsepower of big boy muscles,
supported by some big old 20 inch RTR wheels
with the fender flares to match.
And if all that went over your head,
just know that it can do this.
(car engine roaring)
And yeah I know some of you are still thinking,
wow, with just a single donation,
I could win a Mustang RTR spec five
with taxes and shipping included and
become best friends with Vaughn Gittin Junior?
Yeah right, what's the catch?
There is no catch.
Just ask Sarah S. from Delray beach, Florida,
who won the Audi RSQ8, we helped give away last year.
And best of all, every donation supports great causes
like Folds of Honor, a nonprofit organization
that helps provide the families of fallen
and disabled service members with educational scholarships.
And that is freaking awesome.

and who knows maybe you'll be the lucky one
to win this thing and then you'll get hooked on drifting.
See you guys out there.
- We asked you guys at our community pool
which product you thought was the dumbest.
200,000 people voted.
So stick around to the end to see how bad that product is.
So without further ado let's get started,
we are starting very strong in my opinion,
with a $23 supercharger.
- Oh my God.
- This is the Double Turbine Turbo charger
Air Intake Gas Fuel Saver Fan Car Supercharger!
- And it's blue.
- You got names like Top Secret,
you got names like HKS, you got names like GReddy
and then you have names like Double Turbine Turbo Charger
Air Intake Gas Fuel Saver Fan Car Supercharger!
- I know which one holds more water to me and it's that one!
That has two fans it says, what is this supposed to do?
- It's a supercharger, you don't know how a supercharger
turbo fan charger works?
- I don't see any of the normal fixings.
The whole customer reviews section is either too small,
just right or too large.
(laughing)
- Whoa.
So it's definitely not a supercharger, definitely.
(laughing)
- Wait, shut up.
(laughing)
I feel like if anything it would hinder airflow.
- Yeah, I would say so, I mean, that doesn't look like
something I would want to put in the path to my engine.
- So not only is it not a supercharger, not a turbocharger.
It's downright dangerous to put in your car.
- Let's go see if it'll fit on Max's car
and I don't think it's gonna.
- Here's where it's supposed to go.
- She's a little dinky,
so yeah, I mean even just to get that in here,
we have to choke this thing down pretty bad
which doesn't scream performance to me.
- [James] Zach, scam or jam?
- [Zach] Scam.
- Don't buy it, it's a waste of money.
Next up Zach, we have a super useful product.
- Oh!
- The Universal Car Phone Holder
soporte movil care monopod Car holder,
for all mobile phone.
- For all.
- Because they don't want to discriminate,
this is for all mobile phones. - For everyone.
- Oh, we've seen phone mounts that you know,
stick to your dashboard, magnets,
we've seen ones that click onto your,
your vent, but this one--
- This is unique.
- Lives on your steering wheel.
- You know that's the one place
I haven't wanted to put my phone in.
- Well, you didn't know it was possible.
- I guess that was, that was probably the problem.
I don't think I want my phone in my steering wheel
while I'm driving.
- Well before you decide, let's check it out.
Let's, let's put it to the test.
- Oh baby!
- Hmm dude, perfect fit.
- Yeah, she does work.
- You know what I really like when I have like my nav up,
I want it to move while I'm driving,
kind of flip around a little.
- It's like VR.
- Yeah a little moving target for me.
I don't love it.
On some cars, there's probably a chance this could
get hit by the airbag, if you get in an accident.
- Yeah I was just thinking if you get in an accident,
your phone's gonna go straight to your face.
- But it does block your gauges completely.
- Uh you accidentally calling--
- Ah!
Whoops, 9-1-1.
9-1-1, I hate this product.
- Okay so unlike our first product,
this one does work. - Yeah.
- And it costs $1.92.
- I just saw that, that could turn me around.
You make something cheap enough and I'm pretty much into it.
- [James] So I think it's kind of a jam.
- Yeah, it's a jam for me, I mean,
I don't personally like it, but it works.
- Next up, we have my favorite named product on the list,
by far no contest.
- Zach behold, the Stupid Car Tray.
(laughing) - Oh man!
That's the actual brand name.
- Yeah. - I love that.
- Yeah.
- Are you happy with your Stupid Car Tray?
- You happy with your Stupid Car Tray?
- What a shtick.
- Stupid Car Tray Personal Multi Function
Food and Drink Travel Organizer.
This is 43.41.
- Oh yikes.
But it does come with a cake strap,
I didn't even notice this.
- Let's test out this Stupid Car Tray.
- It does do a decent job of leveling it out,
it's not quite level.
- I do want to point out that Zach is sitting in the back,
because the Stupid Car Tray
takes up the entire passenger seat.
Which is, makes it sort of a lonely product.
I also don't see what this does for me,
that the seat doesn't already do.
- That the seat doesn't already do, yeah.
- You know what you could do?
This will be great for car charc--
Charcuterie, Carcuterie.
- Carcuterie boards!
- (laughing) Carcuterie boards.
We put some nice salumis, we'll bring the cheeses,
a little nuts and grapes in here.
I don't think it's a scam, I don't think it's a jam.
- I think it just kind of, it just exist.
- Yeah, it's just kind of stupid, that's,
that's what they said, yes.
(laughing)
- All right Zach we're moving back into performance
modifications here okay, I know you're a fast boy
- What do you got for me?
- So today, I got a Super OBD2.
- Woo-hoo!
- New Updated SuperOBD2 Chip tuning Box
OBDII Interface Plug and Drive OBD for diesel
Save More Torque Power Better Than NitroOBD2 or EcoOBD2.
- Better than NitroOBD2, you know what that means.
- So for $8 Zach.
- Yeah.
- You get up to 35% more power.
- Whoa!
- And 25% more torque.
- I could saved so much time on the Miata.
- Yeah. - There's no way
there's anything going on inside of this thing,
I want to take this apart.
There's no real interface here.
The idea with tuning is that you kind of
change what the ECU is telling your engine to do
in some, some capacity or another generally for more power
and you just don't have that ability here.
So you know, maybe if this were car specific
and it came with a tune preloaded for a specific car
then I could buy it, but just some generic $8 plug
that I'm sure has nothing going on inside.
There's just no way this is going to do anything.
- I mean, you can tell it's quality by how light it is.
- It's also yellow, which is you know.
- One of the fastest colors.
- Well I found the user manual, so let's go use it.
(laughing)
Okay, so here's already two port,
we've got the car key out from the ignition,
now we'll find the OBD2 connector, we just did that.
Now we're going to plug her in, ah!
- [James] Whoa it lit up! - It lit up that is true.
Insert the key into the ignition James
and twist the key to the first stage.
- Got it.
- She is connected to the engine,
so now it's time to start up the engine.
(car engine starts)
And then it says to press the reset button
for about five seconds to reset.
- One, two, three, four, five.
- Kaboom.
- The door chime turned off,
it looks like it's resetting, it's flashing for sure.
- It is definitely flashing.
- I don't know it sounds more powerful.
- You think?
- Yeah. - Hmm.
All right, well the OBD2s Chip Tuning Box Super OBD2.
Well, I don't know I mean,
unless Max actually documents some power gains
and fuel economy savings.
- I just don't see how it would work.
- Yeah, I don't either.
I mean, this is kind of that smoke and mirror stuff that
seems like a real scam to me, but it did light up.
- Which is sick.
I'm really excited about this one.
- Which concerns me.
- It's more of a detailing product.
- Oh okay. - You know,
to keep your car clean.
- Yeah.
- Oh God. (laughing)
- Oh my g--
(laughing)
That's if I, if I ever imagined somebody holding a fart.
That's what a solid fart looks like.
- Yeah. (laughing)
- Say hello to Cleaning Goop,
this is Vacuum cleaning soft rubber car
interior accessories car dust dust removal
cleaning car cleaning artifact
cool high-tech hot sale!
- Hot sale!
- They are not kidding on hot sale.
This is $7, originally down from $99.
- That's like a 93% savings.
Right off the bat, this kind of stuff does work.
As far as getting in cracks and crevices and detailing.
Some goop can be a good thing,
but this is some goopy feeling.
- Yeah, it does appear to be very liquidy goop.
- Oh yeah.
- Ooh!
Liquidy jellyfish.
- Yeah, it left that way grosser than it was, just a second,
just a second ago.
- You know before we use this goop
this desk wasn't slimy at all
and now it's covered in slime.
- It's pretty slimy.
- Extracted from natural plant formula, no pigment,
which makes it healthier, I do not believe that
based on how it smells, there are chemicals in that.
So I've been told that Max has been saving
a part of his car, just picking up dust
for this very moment.
- He said it's what, the interior?
- Yeah, the entire interior.
- I'm interested to see what--
Oh yeah, up here is going to be great.
We've got some animal hair, we've got some debris.
(laughing)
- [Zach] Yeah get her into those cracks, you know?
Oh baby!
Well it's leaving it wet.
- [James] (laughing)
- That doesn't necessarily mean clean though.
Hey, put it in his vents here.
(laughing)
- Shove it in there.
- Sickening!
That's absolutely disgusting James.
I'm glad you're doing that.
- I think that a product similar to this could work.
- Yeah, I agree.
- I don't think this is very good goop,
I think it's a little too liquidy.
- Yep. - Little too goopy.
The desk is slimy now.
I'd be better off using silly buddy.
And this was a hundred dollars.
I mean, this is a scam.
- [Zach] Terrible goop.
- [James] This is bad goop.
- [Zach] Bad!
- Zach what would you say is the second coolest part
of having a turbo on your car?
- Second is the noises.
- Yeah, well what if I told you,
that you get all those noises?
Not have to worry about any of the power,
at a fraction of the price, I'm talking $35.
Zach this is a universal...
Oh my God. (laughs)
- It's so big.
- Electronic turbo Fake Dump Valve Turbo Blow Off Valve
Sound Electric Turbo Blow Off Valve Analog Sound BOV.
- So this is to make the blow off valve sound.
I thought this was going to be a fan-fan.
- It's the opposite of miniature, this thing is huge!
- Gigantic.
- Red wire to positive, black wire to negative.
And then switch,
behind, behind the accelerator pedal.
- I am so excited.
- [James] Me too.
- Okay, we've got power.
- Man I'm floored.
- It's floored.
Oh, do we have power?
We do have power.
Okay,
floored it.
(loud screeching)
(laughing)
- Oh my God.
- Wait, what's the...
(laughing)
- Wow!
That sounded exactly like a GReddy type
as blow off valve dude.
All right let's close this hood
and see how much noise this thing makes.
'Cause you know what?
This is totally worth it,
as long as you can hear it from like a block away.
- Yeah.
(car engine roaring)
(laughing)
(car engine roaring)
- [Zach] Does that sound turbo?
(car engine roaring)
It's good enough for me.
- All right so the Universal Electric turbo
Car Fake Dump Valve Turbo Blow Off Valve
Sound Electric Turbo Blow Off valve Analog sound BOV.
- For $35.
- $35, is a hilarious jam,
it'd be really funny if you put this on your friend's car.
- Yeah, that would be a good one.
That would be a good, you know,
just mild mannered, but funny prank.
- Very funny. - Yeah,
nobody's getting hurt there.
- Zach, it seems like every year
car companies come out with some crazy new technology
that we didn't even know that we needed.
- It's true.
- And then it's hard to imagine a world without it.
And this next product is no exception, Zach,
I present to you.
Armrest lasers. - Oh baby!
- This New Laser armrests box car star interior modification
car roof lamp star protection voice control
environment light atmosphere environment starlight DJ
colorful music light control remote control spotlight
voice control LED light USB plug!
- That's one of the best titles yet.
- This has eclipsed the goop for deals because,
it's $17, originally $199.
- This is on sale, it does have packaging.
It has instructions.
- With a little tool.
- Wow.
- This is a very comprehensive kit.
- This is like just a mini little party light
for in your car, that's the laser.
- (laughs) That is so small. - That's her.
- [James] All right, so first let's wipe her down.
- [Max] What is that?
- This is a wipe, this is a wet wipe.
Not, it's not wet.
- [Zach] Well, it's been in shipping for a long time.
Let's see this puppy work.
Whoa. - Oh God, whoa!
- Woo-hoo!
- It's cool.
- I love it so much.
- I was staring right down the barrel when you turned it on.
- Yeah look at all the lasers.
- But that, actually
I didn't mean to just now, like nobody--
- No but it does hit you... - Yeah.
- And you know what, with lasers usually
you gotta be like staring right into it
and that's hitting my eyes in a weird all over the place
'cause of how it shoots the light out.
- Yeah it's like a colander of lasers, so.
- So if you put this in the wrong spot
you could definitely go blind while driving.
- Yeah driving isn't dangerous enough,
you might as well put some lasers into the mix.
All right so what do we think about this guy?
- Well, I don't really think that,
shining lasers around in the interior of your car
is the brightest idea.
(percussive sting) (laughing)
- Yeah I think it's pretty cool.
I did get tagged in the eye with a laser about four times.
- Seven times, same.
- In that 45 seconds that we were using this product.
- And it's only gonna get worse at night.
- I don't think this thing is a scam.
- It's a partial jam.
- [Zach] Yeah, it does what it says, it's kind of silly.
- Yeah and now we have finally reached our last product,
the product that you guys voted to be the dumbest.
- What have you got for me?
(thump) - Oh my...
- LED exhaust pipe.
- Just what I always wanted in my exhaust,
is that fake carbon fiber? - [James] (laughing)
So $40, an incredible bargain.
You can make the tip of your exhaust light up, okay?
This is a one size fits all product,
in the picture it's hooked up to a Ferrari.
- Oh, he's got a red and a-- (laughing)
- This is a LED Exhaust Muffler,
Flaming Straight Tip Pipe Universal Car
Car Modified Single Outlet Exhaust Pipe Tail Throat.
- Tail Throat! - Yeah. (laughing)
- I'm assuming the LEDs are in here.
Yeah you've got, you know,
these wires coming out of your exhaust pipe, as you do.
- [Max] That's a fuse.
- That is a fuse, but it seems to just be running to itself.
(laughing)
Perpetual energy machine I guess.
- Finally cracked the code! (laughing)
So I'm assuming that there is some cutting
that has to take place, you wouldn't know
because it didn't come with any instructions.
- Well, when you're this deep, you don't need instructions.
Okay, let's get this thing in there.
Like I said, it's a little small,
so I guess it goes inside of our exhaust pipe around here.
Do you know what max?
It does leave you with a nice extended tip
- [Max] That looks sick, dude, you should keep that.
- If I was gonna install this permanently
I'd probably just run this right into the trunk.
(laughing)
And then you're good.
- Then you're good yeah, just right through the middle.
- [Zach] Okay imagine it's nighttime, Max is out,
he's you know, shredding the streets
and somebody pulls up on him, Max flips his switch.
- [Max] Damn!
- Oh baby!
- That's really tight.
- I think I would genuinely lose my cool,
if I got passed by this, on the highway.
I would just be screaming and howling,
in the driver's seat of my car.
- This is what you call adding insult to injury.
- [Zach] Exactly.
- You smoke someone, you chop them on the highway,
you flip--
- You flip on for the after burn.
- Boop!
(car engine roaring)
- It sounds better too.
- 100% worth it, that is sick.
You guys thought that was dumb?
Now who's dumb?
I think it's a jam, this thing is hilarious.
This works as advertised, it's not a scam,
it's not going to give you any performance gains, obviously,
but it is pretty hilarious and pretty fun,
just like a lot of the products we looked at today.
And at the end of the day that's what cars are all about,
having fun. - [Zach] Having some fun.
- Hey guys, just a quick reminder
that the Donut dark mode collection ends this week,
we had to deal with some pretty scary back alley scientist
type guys to get a special reflective ink.
That's on the dark mode, Donut tee and sticker.
Really stoked on how they turned out,
so make sure you get one before they're all gone.
And if you don't want to be seen at all,
I'm talking John Cena levels of invisibility here,
we also made a Boost Creeps dark mode tee,
gets yours today, it ends March fifth.
- We make a lot of videos and
it turns out we buy a bunch of dumb crap,
so we're gonna start giving it away to
the Donut Underground members,
if you want to learn more about that
you can hit that join button right below me
or I'll put a link in the description below.
Zach, thank you so much for joining me.
I had a lot of fun today.
- I had a blast.
- Where can people find you on social media?
- You can follow me on Instagram @zachjobe
