        I knew that Travis wrote the article. I also have a preliminary copy of the text but he wrote it like 9 mos ago (last fall), he was pretty sure they would run it but there was a chance they wouldn't. Since it's been so long I had wrote it off. I have a copy of all the pics he took too. I really liked the location he picked... It would have been cool if my new intake was on but that was installed like 2 weeks before the BBQ this year. It was on back order forever.

            Mags are on a tighter schedule on tech than they are car features, although neither is that tight. They can run car features whenever they have space to fill. They probably have a dozen in the bank.

              Thanks, I will get it on the dyno once I get some cash saved to get it tuned. From others that have been on the dyno with this intake I'm guessing it will lose on the bottom end and gain a little on top. A procharged car lost 10rwhp on the bottom and gained 15 on top. I installed it mainly to stop my chronic coolant leaks. I have had two plastic intakes leak on me now and I am done with them (one of them was the updated one with the alum. crossover). This was the cheapest intake aside from the PPI intake which I know is kind of a POS (they look pretty though).

                Awesome. I can't wait to see it. I wonder why we didn't get our copy at the office.

                      Cool. That E-85 article is the only one I've done so far this calendar year. I'd like to do more but I'm just not terribly motivated.

                        Thanks Taryn, It's still a work in progress, I have a few things to install still (nothing that will make it faster though). Wish I could afford to get a shortblock, then I could make some real power...

                            THAT would be the understatement of the year.

                              I am sending my gf to shinders today to pick up a couple copies and probably frame it. I'm pretty excited...
