I hate it. Too much show, not enough action. The only clip of it doing anything is like in the dark.

On another note, I don't see the use for that power in a fwd car. Unless the car was totally stripped down, lexan windows and big slicks, then I'd hit it.

looks like its for a catch can to me
The SS line coming from where the breather normaly would be is probley for the catch can. I think he was wondering about the two redish lines coming off of the front.

its a second crank case evacuation system. The stock system can't flow enough at high RPM, so people add another setup on the valve cover. The stock setup is on the back of the block, probly replaced with a catch can and endyne fittings

The stock one is comming off the cover at a 45, it is in the back left corner. I am not sure why he has 2 off the front though. Not saying that they are not what he suggestesd, but it seems a little overkill.

Just watched the video, didn't liek it. The things they made a big deal out of where the wheels and body kit, ---- all that. If you are boasting about 480 then make the video about the engine.

I love that they say 480 WHP, and then cut immediatly to wheels and body kit.

I honestly don't think that car is half bad, they definitely need some 1/4 mile and dyno sheets though. And you all know you'd take it if it was given to you
