How much you all wanna bet that....

with an Alfa Romeo wing, an intake and exhaust mods, the SVX can do 335whp?

It's amazing what you can do to a car for nearly no cash. Hop on down to the local 1/4 and sift through that trash barrel, and there's sure to be a hot timeslip. Find a nasty dyno chart on the floor at your nearby tuner shop, and BAM! You've got power like nobody's biz. Call your pals over, flash the docs, and watch 'em wish they were you. Oh, yeh...

Would Cold Air intake even make a difference with our cars? I mean in order to get cold air the installation would be some what of a difficult one. And the pipe would need to reach pretty far, also, always the risk of getting water in the engine.

Forget all of that nonsense.....A "No Fear" sticker and a huge monsterous eye-sore of a spoiler, that car would hit 350 HP just like that!

Haha, this is exactly what i was thinking. Maybe he has repressed anger towards his transfer clutch? Well, what used to be a transfer clutch.

Well considering the SVX has a stock cold air...

No, I don't think it would.

Also nb4, SVX is not a honda.

Well, I was talking about a After market one, you know a pipe that runs down the bottom of the front bumper, It can increase hp for some cars but I wasn't sure, and thank you for letting me know this
