Don't forget the stickers. Stickers add horses. Scientifically proven by every Honda Civic.

Boring as hell, but look where he runs the wiring...
Greatest video of all time!!!

The hole drilled under the seat, the wires sticking out everywhere and waiting to get caught on something, the plastic bull horn speaker......ALL BRILLIANT!!! That scene where he scares the dog was better than the naked fist fight in Borat!

BEST LINE: "I personally think it sounds great."

Beers To You, Alex!

I just listened to the audio...

"I ran the wire back through here.... though my control arm and springs... I hope they don't get in the way."

I guess the biggest question nobody's asked is, did you have fun on Monday?

ETA: "Doing a 0-60 in my 1998 Ford F-150 4.2L SPI V6. Mods are only a K&N Series-77 CAI which you can seriously hear mid- to high-range powerup in 2nd and 3rd" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UlcRTyOtfV0

This one is my favorite though: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RbVZt4YlFcc

Well I put my new T/B on today so here are my guesstimates:
Base 98 4.6L-220
Intake+10
T/B+10
TBS+5
Exhaust+15(it's got an x-pipe )
UD pulleys+12
Accel coils and FRPP wire+15
Edge on customized level 2+15
Grand Total=302hp and prob. 350 ftlbs
I mean its got to be close right? Maybe more like 292/344, but either way the claims are for real!

TBS+5?? if thats a throttle body spacer on a fuel injected engine its not going to give you anything. You would only see a gain from it if it was on a carbed motor.

Well whether its carbed or FI, the 1" of plenum volume will help, It wont work the way the suggest, but it will add plenum volume. But the whole thing is a joke, adding up what the part *Says* it adds.

You missed the sarcasm. All a TBS does is make the intake whistle like a teakettle.

I'm going to add the following:
-K&N air intake CAI - +8 hp / +10 ft/lbs
-Magna Flow muffler - +10 hp / +12 ft/lbs
-Underdrive pulleys - +10 hp / + 12 ft/lbs
-93 octane fuel - +2 hp / +3 ft/lbs
Total: +30 hp / 37 ft/lbs
The fact that all of these mods will probably decrease my hp and tq... Priceless.
