Wayne,
I started work on my warm air mod, about a 20 minute job. Once i got it installed i realized a big problem, the car was barely drawing any air through it! I thought, hmmm, must be a bad seal...so i took it off and tested w/ the original snorkle. I had the same results. Normally, when you pass your hand over a cars snorkle (ok...not the real term, i just cant think of it) it will lower in rpms, or act like its going to stall. This didnt happen, i even covered it completely and the car kept on just like it had been. I'm really put back by this..and i worry about it as well. Were is the car getting the extra air?! <_<
Cheers,
Steven
