Damn, who pissed in your cereal this morning?

you know if everything just bolted on with simplicity then just about any moron could build fast cars but i guess thats why you rather have a intake bolts right on.

plus when his intake is finished it should look better and outperform most intakes on the market

congrats u just made yourself look like a total dbag so your telling me that 1000 hp cars with vic jr and elbows are not structurally sturdy i never heard of one saying they flew off the track cause they cut out allittle bit of sheetmetal and hey bolton wonder iv been threw all the other intakes at certain stages and fast are just ugly and way overpriced wanted to try this new intake been alota hype about so i figured id share my experience since nobody has yet maybe somebody will take mine and do theres better thought that was what this site is for so go hangout in the street racing and kills section with the rest of your fagot friends and swing on eachother nuts about how fast your bolton cars are

Looks great, congratulations! How bad does it hit your hood? I have the same hood on my Hugger Orange Z28.
