Thanks for the suggestion, Jay.  I've purchased some
things from Bob, and he threw that one out there as a
suggestion (very tempting, i might add, too), but in
the end, i am still concerned with fuel economy and
pollution, so i am keeping with stock.  That and money
for this project is all used up. :-)

According to his numbers, you are actually getting
closer to a 15% increase in power, btw (claims a 13HP
boost).
