What's the betting mine won't get through Australian Customs....... SMERSH will know too.

If it does, I'm not looking forward to the 3am hammering on the front door - and what am I going to tell my wife when she spies the incriminating evidence???

Mine arrived unscathed for what it is worth. Since I am fond of my silver wheels I am apprehensive about inserting it into my Box Car. I don't want the machine to self destruct! Going over to DE at Lime Rock next Tues. and plan on "playing" it on the way over (on way back too if all is well). Since they are coming after my 20 rd magazines they may as well take the disc along with it. Looking for inexpensive Kevlar undies, anybody have a source?

Is it true that you gain 15 hp and 20 ft lb of torque when the disc is finished working over your ECU?
