    i don't think any body kit really looks good on 850's but here are some of the older style DTM kits Erebuni discontinued, but somebody is now replicating, some with higher grade duraflex material http://www.raceonusa...ter_id=0&page=1

    Cuz hot air intakes have very nominal gains albeit still better throttle response. Or people just got rid of their cars and didn't need them anymore.

    The only real problem with running CAI is you must be very careful when driving in bad weather. Sucking water up is suck ass.

    im surprised nobody has brought up how you get the "WOOOOOOOSHH" which is +100 cool points :ph34r:


    you get -100 per post for your triple post, so no cool points for you!! :ph34r: :lol:

    Open air intakes help, dyno proven (not volvo proven, but in performance magazine test) short ram intakes increase low end and help throttle response while the longer piping and of course location of the CAI gives more top end power. Baseline done a Miata with a new K&N panel filter in stock box. Gains were only 5-10ish hp, but the gains were definitely there it just depended on the set up on where that power was made.

    And anything that gets rid of that stupid accordion pipe that scrambles any type of laminar air flow to the turbo is a huge bonus.

    the wires shorted out, check the fuse for the low beam driver side light. worst case scenario you fried that harness and will need to replace it, but i doubt it. however you might want to try out the HID on the working side too to confirm that it still works cuz you may have shorted the ballast on that too.
