i was thinking the same.. with all the air blowing through the rad, seems like all the heat just goes right into the filter!

might be a signifigant gain from a cold air box

just my observation though.. i forgot to mention how nice of a job you've done with the car!

One of my friends has worked out the software on how-to communicate with the haltech, so he has an LCD for a dash and he is working on gauge software.. so basically gauges/laPtop all in one, pretty nice...!

Aye, I ordered one from Aerodyne and it looks great. Shipping was fast with them and the lady on the phone was very helpfull and knew what she was talking about. I ordered a roll bar and side vents from them also. Good place to buy from.
