Wrong. It's a private forum. Bought and paid for by it's owner. If you would be so kind as to suction your head from your ass for 5 minutes you might want to look over this message board's Code Of Conduct where it clearly states that belligerence and bullying will not be tolerated.

Jason, I would put the order in and tune your present set up for the season.
You might want to try a home made cool air induction from the front of the car along with a 160 T-stat. Its all the little things together that make a strong running car.
Don't forget things like alignment, wheel bearings, brake adjustments. Anything that can cause drag.

This company might have what you need. They are a little high priced in my book but they seem to be the only game in town.

Its more the cool air then any so called "ram" effect that helps.
I used a Pontiac 400 cop car air filter that I found on E-Bay for 30 bucks along with a 4" flex pipe from Home Depot.
