Sweet, hoping to build the site up for us... The more opinions the merrier and the "other" site plain sucks

It absolutely does. I HATE it and rarely hang out there except to find the few solutions. I spend most of my time here; are you the owner at ctsvowners?

There is really no good option, Volante suck the bog one; you have to modify it so much to work it is ridiculous. The top does not seal so it sucks in more hot air and on top of that the top does not fit well. I enlarged the holes on my filled the holes where the Volante badging was screwed to the top, primed and painted the top this weekend, I also installed some weatherstriping so it seals good now.....

There was a dyno test of several brands awhile back and it only show 5 rwhp, so not much.
