Grrr...
I'm pissed! Was going to show up with you guys. I got out of class in one hour. Went home and ran into a dead-end with making a cold-air intake.
I wanted to film Tom going down the strip and take a few pics. I hope you guys get some good pics and/or footage. Good luck! I will not leave my computer tonight until I read about the results. I say....Tom's 1st run will be around 14.1-14.3@94-96mph. 2nd run will be around 13.83-13.99@100-102mph. I like doing this. Place your bets......

well... hit a brick wall... no not literally Bill
The car shot out of the hole like no other but it died up top. At first I was thinking it was pulling timing but on the way home it hit me. I am still running the stock intake with the stock air box... to boot, I am running a at least year old dirty ass Fram filter I meant to pull it and do a run when I was prepping the car last night but I totally forgot... So as it stands, the car still runs 13.9 but has a lot more to go Tom |

if its for the track, couldn't you custom fit one from APEXi or something? I know APEXi has dry filters that give very good air flow.

Tom,
The gold rims don't look bad, but the silver ones will look so much better. Awesome pictures!

He was having major probs with the intake air filter. You will not get a 13.9N/A out of a svx unless you strip it and do some motor work. I think the racer ran a 14.2 and that is about as light as you will get in an svx. When I go tomorrow night I want to see a very low 13 sec to high 12 sec run.
