you made a home made ram air I assume. It could be your homemade ram air, but I dunno. I've made the same thing on my teg and I noticed a difference when I put it on, it wasn't much but for $5 you can't complain eh

Top speed has nothing 2 do with Horse power. Top Speed is Gearing....it might be that your headlights were down becuase of the aerodymanic drag????

so when i car is in last gear at 3000 rpms and it wont move anymore, its not horsepower its gearing, :rolleyes:

the gearing matters if its redlining in last gear, otherwise it needs more power to hit that redline and achieve a higher speed right?

Your intake must have added to your top speed man! Add another intake for even more power!

at least my 87 with 320 000k has a higher top speed than a teg with a WEAPON RRRICEEERRR intake :werd:

You've got a point...I've been hearing a lot about intakes blowing engines. Play it safe.
