that's not from the movie steve. it's pissing rain here all day and I gotta work in it.

DK, that's not bad but at the crank is next to negligable, where as you might see 3-5 probably at the wheels

It's pretty approximate. What intake did you say you're going with? I'd bet you won't get much, if anything up top.

I saw that, I e-mailed him and he said it was ZIS but I'm thinking it was a VIS. I just can never justify something that won't make me go faster .

(Although I guess it could classify as weight reduction ).

What WOT box did you get?
