call me crazy but there is something sexy about a fast-*** four door car. anyone can have a sports car or a "sports" coupe (which i have). but the coolest thing to me is to have a room for five with enough power to pin their collective heads to the rear glass. SP Engineering, huh?

wowee....that's a veilside intake plenum right there....about $3000 worth of shiny thing. Heard it's good for at least a 30-40hp increase on our motors....

I wonder how hard it is to transplant that kit onto a V300 engine.....ours is a tad different than the Supras...
