you have any trouble getting an alignment with those springs?
You could turbo your v6. That seems to work well.

The alignment guy whines about it, but he gets it right.

That's because it was a simple design that uses High grade plastic - It's made well. However, I did make one small mod to it. Fabbed a gasket to go in between the MAF cylinder and air box, but that's it. ONELOWF already had a bolt down method - I used the same.

A couple of months after I bought it ...



Now ...



Not much difference, just a few low-buck mods. I try to minimize how much money I dump into my vehicles (it just doesn't pay), while still having a ride that's a little fun...
