Default Carbon fiber intake
Has anyone checked out this carbon fiber intake on ebay? Is what this guy claims to be true about the HP gains? He says on a 368 it will make 800hp with this intake.

Roger,

I don't know about the intake, but am curious about your avatar. It looks like it might be Steel Blue car with a Shinoda body kit. I saw one of these in Las Vegas in 2006.

It is a steel blue car, but I think it is just a greenwood body kit. Still not sure about how I feel about the body kit.

That was quick. There are pictures of the car I mentioned on the Registry. Willie Shields owned it and this car was Bad Azz to the bone. It had an LPE 385 with Nitrous and had run 10.20 at 140 in the 1/4. We were at the first gathering in Vegas and everyone was waiting to see this bad boy run the mile. He did, but when he hit the NOS, there was a leak in the bottle and none was sprayed. Damn, I was looking for a 190 or so. He got the leak fixed, but we only got one run.

As I mentioned, I was curious if you ended up with it. Steel Blue is a very nice color.

What's with the ground straps on the spark plug wires? I haven't seen that done in years.
