Default Will these add horsepower???

In addition to adding to the aesthetic value of the car, I think these may get me an added 20HP.

I doubt they'll ever increase the HP.

But, if you ever get stopped by the Motorcycle Cop from 'Wild Hogs', you're sure to beat the ticket!

Cheers!

I just put three pelican part stickers on my car and I swear theres about a 50hp gain, I am also noticing a large amount of low end torque.

Quality! These would go nicely with that sunroof liner in another thread.

I don't think they will add horse power - as noted earlier - However, the effect may be the same as I believe by the nature of the make up of the fabric it will decrease the weight of the car - if attached to the floor board properly there-by changing the HP to weight ratio for greater performance. Wait a minute though - where was the carpet made - Mid East or Asia

I'm not buying the stinkin' sunroof liner! But look at the lovely chandelier I'm installing....and the best part is that it works off of the stock door switch!

I think the floor mat will add performance but only if you have Steppenwolf playing loudly on the stereo.
