WAS airbox performance, reengineering for high preformance

[senatorpack@xxxx]

Some of the car enthusiast magazines write a story about new airbox/free 
flow filters from time to time. The numbers indicate a very modest 3-4hp 
gain. However it isn't at the axle it's at the flywheel.
Remember that Kayo Ong of NYC had a high performance maker of exhausts, 
fabricate a "free flow exhaust and filter assembly" After spend the $$$ 
(thousands of dollars) he put the stock DeLorean parts & muffler back on.
The only car that I have driven that "felt free at revs" was when I drove 
Rob Grady's BRG DeLorean.
If you trying to do burn outs in a DeLorean...forget about it. Even the 
Countach will not do a burn out. The gears in both of the DMC and Countach 
are too tall.

The only real effective way to make the DeLorean in to a high performance 
beast is to follow what the Pantera owners are doing...totally reengineering 
the car, from the ground up. Brakes, trans., engine, body structure upgrades, 
cooling, electrical, tires, rims, etc., etc., etc. Only the shape is original.
