Wow, now there's an idea! Throw one of those Tornado devices in there, and you'll be unstoppable...

Seriously though, how much could swapping out the ribbed units actually GIVE you.. Scorp may have a point, in saying they were like that for a reason??

If you do a search of the C4 Tech/Performance archives using the term "power coupler" there are a number of threads on them. I reead a few and nobody seems to hold them in very high regard...

Got a hammer and nail? The ability to improvise - that's what made this country great! :)

If you read the product blurb, it mentions "performance-friendly, yet economical replacement to your weathered, false code throwing factory hose!" What kind of code would it throw? :confused:
