e
little critters leave doppings all over the place.  Just go to your local=

hardware store and pick up some flexible tubing - then tap in to the AC
ventilation system.   WOW - that was easy.  Now you've got adjustable boo=
st
AND an on/off switch for an intercooler on the center console!  Total cos=

only about $10.

pressure =

3.     your car takes about 300 cfm at 6000 rpm,  are you going to get th=
