Ah, this harkens me back to the Ken Wilfy thread about the aftermarket rear side vents with little scoops increasing horsepower! Seems someone got the place into an uproar about whether the extra air flow to the engine would increase hp output. Have no idea who could have participated in throwing fuel on the flames. He didn't mean to suggest you would gain hp by buying these side vents -- all he meant was every little bit of ram air helps -- but somehow I found the whole thing amusing. (Imagine that) : ) Happy Friday HK
