how about if i wax my car with canola oil, would that help to reduce drag? im thinking that would be best if im going to run with the gas cap open.
down here in the lone star state it get so hot we can fry french fries on our hoods - canola oil on the hood would work

i bet the guy with the gas door open hasnt found the release

Route the exhaust from your header back into your intake It acts like a natural turbo

This is a very important question. I think the mods should sticky this.

i am trying to re-route the exhaust to the passenger cabin, so cops won't pull me over and i can listen to the F22 music...as well as working on removing the firewall between me and the engine...
try removing the windshield and explain to the cops that you have no place to put a registration or inspection sticker
