there is some type of greenhouse gas that pvc gives off thats not good for people but i have no clue about the engine. i replaced my stock intake box thing with a 90 degree pvc elbow and haven't had any problems with it but who knows. i want to get 4 inch abs plastic with two 3 to 4 inch connectors and run it from the tb to the air box but i don't really need 10 feet of abs which is the shortest i can find it lol

This is the quarter mile run I made.....Don't mind the reaction time, about a half a second of that is the poor throttle response my truck has.

These are the numbers to go with the curve....
