the K&N air filter cost me like $60 (American) and it definitely makes a difference. It's not an outrageous difference (adds a couple hp) but it helps with acceleration in first gear and overall top speed. Definitely the easiest and most cost effective upgrade you can make. As for driving 130 mph I do that at certain times during the year on the highway because I live next to an old SAC base (Strategic Air Command, dating from the Cold War, its one of the places where B-52's would take off from with nuclear payloads if we ever had open hostilities with the Soviet Union) so the highway had to be maintained to high levels. It is still maintained to high levels because the naval shipyard nearby services our nuclear subs on a regular basis. As far as worrying about the law...well as good a car as the Police Interceptor Crown Vic is it cant accelerate fast enough to catch me going 130. And I always make sure that no one is on the road when im doing it cause it is just one big straight. |
