Welcome to the forum!!!! There are heaps of threads here about the 90mm intake & exhaust options so have a browse to get some ideas.

To post photos, you use the small yellow icon just above the text box (4th icon from the right). If you run the mouse over it, it will read 'Insert Image'. First however you need to upload your photos to Imageshack or Photobucket which is free. Have a play around with it and if you get stuck (which I did at first), let us know & someone can give you more specific instructions. Good Luck.

Another 380 manual owner!

I think that makes about four of us at last count.

Speaking of 'a few little mods', for mimimal $ (less than $2,000 all up) and time (1, maybe 2 days in the shop) you should be able to get similar figures to mine.

Check out my dyno results, post #9 on page one of the 380 dyno thread.

KJ.
