    While technically this is correct, I must point out that the boost one gets from a combination of Heineken's and Barbacued Baked beans with bacon outweighs any potential benefits of regularity from fiber alone.

    Possibly installing some sort of a by pass valve would help control any sudden and dramatic loss of boost and its abrupt return and the resultant problems it creates.. Still concerned with the pulse width variations though....:(

    I wasn't going to derail this any further, but I must add, Jbewley, do not post anymore. Your post count is perfect! (666).

    Very nice splitter.:D

    From the pic, I don't know, it kind of looks like the driver side turn buckle mount is coming loose from the grill, or is it just the angle of the shot? Check it out, so you don't loose those expensive bits.

    I took a few snap shots after a day in the hills . Several different angles to give you a better idea as to how they look. I like the fact that they do not really jump out at you like they do on some cars . I am sure it has something to do with the other items and color scheme of my car but the end result is good. They are also placed high enough on the fender that they to get a clean shot of air and more importantly do not lessen the effect of the lower splitter which does the majority of work anyway. I've seen these used on other cars where they are closer to the splitter and they are lessening the effect of both items .

    Dang I never got a pic yesterday.. But your right, I was concerned about them looking too boy racer and standing out so much but my wife has walked by my car many times now and went with me in it to minipalooza yesterday and she as yet even noticed they are on there, hasn't noticed the spoiler extension either for the matter.. Don't want to tell her just as a test to see how long its takes her to notice them......she also.doesn't know I spent the money yet either..:) ;)
