    .1% x .1% x .1% x.1% - a whole whopping 4.0% increase - because Tom sucks at math!

    now now boys, everyone knows that if you really want to add hp and throttle response you need to use these

    now nobody can keep up with me!

    I just put gell inserts in my shoes to get the same effect. I can't tell that I'm pressing on the gas any harder but the increase in acceleration is phenominal.

    Zeus - Shoulda told you earlier, my mantra is: No horse is so dead that it can't be beat one more time.

    BTW, my math is great: I work 8-10 hours, I multi-task so I'm logged on here for 2-4 hours each day so I must work at least 10 to 14 hours of each day.

    BTWA, if you keep her washed & waxed, less air friction= another 0.1% increase in throttle response (but only at highway speeds).

    Eric - What're those? Your spoiler have Zits?

    At that rate you should have a post rate of .1% a day because your hours per day would almost double. And if you look at it that way, you have the fastest VX in the world! ...Or is it the slowest..? Yep, it's the slowest. I admit it, I suck at math.

    Eric,

    Just kidding about the spoiler zits. They actually look nice. Are they lights or reflectors or just bling?
