Yeah, but that set-up doesn't have the magical "cone" properties that are so
important to horespower production.  I bet if we had a pyramid shaped air
filter se could get 16 more HP!    :)

You guys are coming dangerously close to discovering the real secret
of the V6anagon. The blurb about more cubic inches producing more power
is just a smokescreen. It's actually the "V" shape of the V6 engine,
closely approximating the mysterious pyramid shape, that makes it faster
than a speeding bullet etc.

I'm sorry you found this out-- now I'll have to kill you to keep the
secret safe.   =:-O                                               ,
