Who would have thought, they would do something like that! Too late now, at least I know I had mine first!

Thanks, its because of the Ram Air effect. My brother liked the style of the Cowl Induction and he had it hooked up to function properly but he figured Ram Air had to be better. So he cut a hole in it, just like mine.He didnt change anything else, made a pass and went 2 tenths quicker. When I first built my car, the first couple weekends out it was not cut, I was going 10.70's, cut the hole and was 10.50's. It isnt the most sophisticated set up but it works. I would recommend doing it to anyone's car if you are looking for more ways to lower your e.t. Keep in mind our cars have carb's on them.
