Would definitely be interested when some pricing numbers are available. Still have some unanswered questions though.

We are all idiots :-)....We're looking for 2-3 mph...and I include myself as chief idiot...not bashing anyone...I just chuckle when I think about what we'll do for a few MPH. So many variables on any given day to make a 2mph difference anyway...the difference between 75 mph and 77 mph is 2.6%...I am an IDIOT...BTW, please hurry with pricing :-)

How about entertaining other drives ? IMCO ? I am interesting as well

what about dealer pricing ? as receiving not just one or 2 drives but possible many over your venture timeframe ?

Well the problem is not in the search for 2-3 MPH. The problem is in the fact once we GET the 2-3 mph, we end up wanting ANOTHER 2-3 mph!!! And so it goes on...Ad infinitum.

Do you guys have any hydrodynamic and drive knowledge/schooling/ or etc ? ust a question, don't get wound up if not. Results trump everything.

Unfortunately $300 is not going to cut it ... Lol. I don't even think you could get a decent repaint at a body shop for $300 We're thinking more like 1k per drive , or else it just isn't worth the time. 1k per MPH ����
