I found these utterly amazing. Might have some practical applications in the GP community I would imagine.

Dude, if I had more room, a welder and a few other items I would probably never leave the house cause I could literally experiment on stuff all day long..

That is a great way to explain how bad the 97-98 stock airbox is, it goes through 2 of those.....imagine all the turbulence

Ding ding ding, he's a winner. Well what do we have for our contestant Bob?

Welllll, we have a beautiful ALL expenses paid 7-day, 6-night trip to wonderful GrandPrixForums.net.

NO WAY!! OH MY GOD!!!! Im so happy I can hardly stand it.

Now think along the lines of exhaust flow and the bends there. Bends are nearly impossible to avoid in either intake or exhaust, but using the principles here, we can certainly minimize their effects.

I would love to have a flow bench or something to test a few things out.

Anyone know how I can download those two videos to my computer. I dont want to loose them.

I got the goods guys, thank you so much for your help. Thats the kind of information that if you dont keep it around it disappears and then you can never make your point again.

Yeah, in most cases I would say you're dead on. But that video makes a good demonstration that its not totally hopeless, just takes a little work maybe.

Crap, I forgot about the cooling system. Thanks toasty. I was fixated on the exhaust and intake.
