For the past year I've been telling my girlfriend that as soon as I win the lotto I'm buying a CTD, an enclosed trailer, and bringing my car to W2W. No she can see why

Oh man, post more pics! I REALLY want to see what the interior is going to look like (dash, etc.).
Is the underside and inside of the body powdercoated silver or painted silver? I think I remember a thread about powdercoating the cage and non-paint parts.

Others do exist for the HP6 style big filter but we have had good luck with them. Kurt may have some input but he is in California for the week.
For as much as they get changed on race cars I don't think it would make that much of a difference. I mean, if you break something the filter isn't going to prevent much.

Surprised when I saw the pic of the interior, that there was no lip on the gas pedal so the driver can pull the pedal back up, if it gets stuck to the floor. Not that it's probably a concern, but I thought that was a rule or something. 
Looks awesome though.. with that MASSIVE rear tire in the back, it has got to be the meanest looking 4th gen car period. Gives me thoughts of tubbing my junk LOL.

The front and back both go to the filler can. It is mounted higher than the engine on the passenger side downbar to help keep air out of the cylinder heads. You can see it in the picture in post 236 of this thread.
