Over the years, many of the tricks used by the film crew behind the Fast and Furious films have been exposed. And now Craig Lieberman has revealed another one.
If you've followed even a little of the Fast and Furious universe for the last 25 years, you also know who Craig Lieberman is.
But for the record, we'll just refresh that he was the man behind all the cars for the first two films.
And now Craig Lieberman himself says that the film crew tampered with the compressor in Vin Diesel alias Dominic Toretto's Dodge Charger; it didn't have a compressor at all.
The compressor that you can still see in the film, which premiered in 2001, is nothing more than a dummy. In fact, you can even see them in the film.
But you have to be sharp. At the end of the film, the team behind it tried to hide the fact that the compressor doesn't work at all by putting a cover over the drive belt, a drive belt that isn't there at all.

However, Dom's Charger is far from the only F&F car people have cheated with in the past quarter of a century. There was, for example, a Volkswagen engine in Paul Walker's Nissan Skyline GT-R. Read more about it here .
