well what's funny is i installed my z3 fender{what started this whole fiasco,} ther is a gap right where the filter is. the body kit i have while cover it, but it isn't on there yet. so i got some bad ass air flow coming right up the filter. i raced a shitty blazer last night and my car was runnin better than ever. of course it just had a oil change also. oh yeah i ate up the blazer. it was old scholl primer low-rider, straight outta 1992. crooked tag on the tailgate and all.
