   As long as we're all talking about intake hop ups, I have a question for
   all of you UrQ owners: ever notice how that rubber hose that goes from the
   intercooler outlet to the throttle body is "kinked" as it makes its 90
   degree bend?  That's gotta hurt the airflow considerably.  What, if
   anything, has anyone done to get rid of the kink so as to increase the
   airflow a little bit? 

Ya know, I've wondered about that . . . I've just assumed ("trusted",
"hoped", "prayed", etc.) that under boost it "expands/smoothes-out"
and all is for the best (it is the World's Most-Perfectly-Engineered
Automobile, right?) . . . sure wish I had access to a 4WD dyno . . .
