American 2 Import 0

Yet another fabulous night for the ole Harley. I just happend to come upon a red light at 2:34am to find two imports reving on each other. One was an Integra and the other a CRX. Cute lil toys that some fool dumped a lot of money into. I came upto the light and had just about 2 seconds before it turned green. The light turned and i thought why not, so i stomped it, Bye bye crx, and the integra was equal for about 40 yards, and then just didnt have it as i pulled away. Such a good feeling, and yet another win, i can go to sleep happy now!

no, not yet, i met the guy who owned it before me. he cut holes in the bottom of the airbox, he told me he wanted it to be more of a cold air induction, how dumb can someone be. other than that, i havent really got to do much to it because im looking for a new job right now, so im tryin to save my money, but once i do start a new job, then the fun with the truck begins.

Actually, cutting holes in the bottom of the airbox appears to be a legitimate mod for these trucks.
Some people have seen an extra pound of boost by doing this or even taking the entire lower section off and using cable ties to secure the filter into the upper section.

When you have some $$$ to spare, call Troyer Performance and discuss some upgrades.
My truck has gone from a 14.92 bone stock to a 13.5 with minor bolt ons and tuning. Total cost for all that about $1500. It's like a different truck now and gets more mpg if I drive normally too.
