Spotted him on the way back from Medina. He literally just left the Ferrari dealer and got on the highway. Old dude, but he got on it.


Now on to installing nitrous

Looks good I would also use the other piece with the grille over it for the end. Don't want to suck up a small animal or something once you spray...

Hey guys, I was reading in one of the import mags about voltage stabilizers increasing hp/torque. Has anyone had experience with one on their 8?

I had posted something years back about one I read where they actually dynoed before and after and got like 4WHP. I posted up here but there was never any talk of it. Normally I would say BS but they before and after dyno seemed legit.

I kinda figured I'll have to get the article, but they did a huge spread on them, comparing different ones.

Looks good. Definitely looking forward to how your setup looks when it's done since it sounds like you're doing a few things differently from mine. Are you trying for a stealth type look or were you just mounting the management unit behind the airbox to keep it out of the way?
