You can't help but see them inside the air box. I used the gringing/cutting wheel on the trusty dremel. I alo cut the front of the airbox out. I can't really attest to how much improvement it made I added a K&N dropin 90 degree fernco and ported and polished the tb. All together that really perked up performance and let loose a a heap of kick but noises from under the hood on acceleration.

Dr. Q, you said you ported your TB? Did you dot hat yourself, or did you have it done. Just wondering, cause i am looking into doin that myself, so i was just goin to ask how you did it. thanks jake!
