Forget hot cams, ported intakes and nitrous - if you want real power check this out: http://foliatec.de/1_deutsch.shtml
That german company is famous for producing crap (except their caliper paint), but i didn´t know that it´s that bad :lol:
(german site, but a look on the pictures should be enough - their english site surprisingly hasn´t all that ricer equipment)

Just read their info on their safety foil to stop windows from shattering ... here's an excerpt:

Quote:
Bei einem Unfall bietet SECURLUX® noch einen doppelten Sicherheitseffekt:
Die Folie an der Innenseite der Scheibe wirkt bei einem Seitenaufprall wie ein Polster, das den Kopf der Insassen abfedern kann.

(Translated: Securlux has a double safety aspect: the foil on the inner side of the window acts as a cushion for passenger heads in case of a side impact)
:lol:
I'd really like to see them demonstrate how well that "cushion" works ...

Chris, you need to put the caliper paint down and open some windows.
