UPDATE Scuderia Jeep… for real.

Sunday, March 19th, 2006

Stage two of Scuderia Jeep preparation.

I improved air flow by cutting large holes in stock airbox. This will soon be replaced with a custom K&N-Style Fuel Injection Performance Kit.

Airbox Engine Side
Some would say to leave a heat barrier between the intake and the engine. I say “More Airflow!”

I’m reducing weight by removing any excess material I can find.

Driver's Door
Inside of driver’s side door before reinforcement.

Back Door
The Jeep’s rear door without the rear window washer motor. Taking it out proved a significant weight reduction. Ultimately the door will be removed.

Fire Extinguisher
I bolted a steel bracket to the floor to reinforce the fire extinguisher mount.

The new grill and taped headlights.

No exhaust pipe
Look, no tail pipe!

Sounds much better. Almost like a homemade Tubi Style.
Stay tuned… The Scuderia plans to win this Mutha!!
