[V8] Riced out 200q20v

[Ingo Rautenberg]

Sorry, I MEANT to say high-pressure area -- but then they should have  
made a proper and functioning cowl-induction hood ala my old '70  
Chevelle SS :-)

As to the GREDDY boost controller -- done properly, I suppose.  Often  
I've seen them hacked in.  Ask Hollister about his S4.  The simple  
type S controller -- yes, those are nice.

I'll have to look at that brake install...
