    I think it was importuner that did a dyno before and after the install of hood spacers and it proved to reduce underhood temp by enough to get like 5 whp I think....not sure how much it's been a while since I read it.

    Anyway, yes lower, and paint, and wheels, and new clear, untinted heads and tails. my 2 cents

    I got it from Summit. $13 per can, but it lasts a while. If you're every planning on coming this way, drop by and just use mine.

    Eventually, I want to have it painted back Milano red with at least some TE37 knock-offs, so I agree. Until then, I'm working with what I have

    That's for cars that need them, from my understanding. And I think 5hp is a little much. it look shitty on cars that actually need them, let alone cars that don't. Later, QD.
