And how's Mrs Palmer & her 5 daughter. I heard you been very intimate with them morning, noon & night :twisted:

Neons are a 10kw gain mate...no way can u beat that mod for performance :P
Chris you forgot the ultimate performance enhancement, it give at least 100kw gain & give every teeny puppy the "king of tosser" factor when they doing lappy around the block for 2hrs.

Wait for it................*i can hear the drum roll now*

It is the rice stickers, just put crap load along the side of your car or all over the car & you be the fastest guy to reach your "destination" on the street & in bed. :twisted:
I though the best performance mode bang for the $$$ is the Leatherette seat covers,
Black/Grey combo seems to be the highest gain overall.
Doing the door cards and roof also increase the power gains. If the gear gator done, this improves your shifting response/times
Don’t have to mentioned the boot of course, increased handling, high speed stability,
You cant go through all the benefits by mentioning

I saw somewhere that air tends to travel along surface edges when its forced to turn corners etc. kind of like any fluid but w/o the gravity part

also (I'm sure) it has been proven in intercooler piping (on autospeed tests?) that the more 90degree bends you have, and the sharper the bends are, the slower the air will move through the pipe from start to end (so loses pressure)

but n/a air moves a lot slower anyway, so i dont know the effects. but u can imagine if the air is more concentrated in a stream on one side of the pipe and theres a restriction (of some sort, maybe in the TB, or rib on an intake pipe) on that specific line the air is moving on then creating a more scattered air effect could help...in theory :)

although i think the longer intake pipe you have the more need for re-turbulanced air is req'd - richardh got a nice increase of power from a very large, very wide-angle bended intake pipe http://ftowa.com/html/workshop/workshopart10.html

Back on subject for a moment, if it were to work then surely the best place to put it would be in the inlet manifold after the throttle body but they may already have some kind of chaneling in them IIRC.
