I am jealous of the good meds Sid!! Get well soon and don't get strung out!!
I'm still a little high but does that mean it didn't work out and you're shipping the fabspeed unit back for refund?

You mean no fabspeed strippers part!?!?!

Ooohweeeeeeeeeee... that's funny Tim!

Or...are ya serious... don't tell me you can actually you get rid of strippers with Fedex!?!

Boys will be boys!

BTW Tim I thought if I could make enough people share my horror it would possible diminish (ya know on a cosmic/spiritual or mononuclear level and what not...) well I'm sorry to say the experiment failed!

But thanks for trying.

Sid.

In closing I had a thought... doesn't cool/cold air hold more oxygen because it's denser and therefore would have a high energy per mass/volume charge...

does it then really make sense to have a high flow system with less filter caused turbulence but place it in the hottest part of the car?!?
I mean yes you've increased the volume of air flow but it carries considerable less oxygen with it ...probable the same or even less than with stock set up...

I mean at least the stock set up has an air intake dedicated to getting cold air (and cold air only) through a set of tubes and boxes which allow it to draw air in from designated section outside the deck lid...
Maybe we should come up with a better place to install this fabspeed filter cone, I mean anywhere outside of the engine compartment would probably show an incredible improvement, you know maybe more on par with say a small blower/supercharger... right?

Hey....hmmmmmmmmm, a small blower...

Sorry did you say something?..........

wasnt following this - read all posts

SID! OMG, sorry about your finger - I imagine either you are in serious pain or seeing pink elephants swinging around a stripper pole on top of a FedEx truck with a big can of cold air mounted to the bumper that is acidently sucking warm air from the exhaust pipe into the cabin where a hot chick is wearing a WWI gas mask and winking at you, but has hairy legs....

of something

Ed you're one crazy #$$#@#$%%...

Man that's funny!
How do you come up with that sh#t?!?

I should have probably started a thread on me and my finger but truly I didn't think people would be all that interested or me have any inclination to talk about it... cause typing is done with the fingers!

And on that note it's time for some more pain killers...

Thanks guys!

Sid.
