And start fabbing up a better air inlet hat for my car too, will ya?

With my Be-Cool radiator, a 4" elbow won't fit. I'm thinkin I need an entire new inlet system. My car starts to lose power at 5k now, and drops at 6k. I also need to upgrade my fuel system again! Damn D-1SC anyway!

Lose your A.C. and take out the condensor, then move your radiator into the condensors position at the base, or, cut the whole bottom condensor/radiator bracket off and move it forward. This will give you the room for an aluminum 4.0" 90 degree elbow, which you can clamp directly to the inlet side of the head unit. Bob

There is a definate market for this. While on the dyno this stock inlet tube made 10#'s of boost, and robbed me 100 RWHP compared to no inlet tube which pulled out 15#'s of boost and 100 more HP to the wheels. My motor shop in NJ fabbed be an inlet tube that collapsed and restriced the flow to only 8#'s of boost. After slapping back on the stock ATI inlet tube and driving it at WOT on the street, it made 13#'s of boost. I think I will just get a bigger air filter for now, and see where the boost is after that. Regaurdless of what I do, there is a definate, and immediate market for an inlet tube here.
