to even out the intake runners.

look at this block design and then imagine one head sitting on top of it. Because of the design the runners are different lengths.

I've been trying to figure out what kind of power is gained from ITBs. What exactly did he gain after throwing those on?

some have said 45+ hp on a 2.8l VR6 (stock bottom end). This is of course with the proper tune. Throttle response is supposed to be great with that setup too.

1/4 = 13.48 sec
mph = 100.67

His current mods are:

GIAC chip
GHL Cold Air Intake
18" SSR Comps w/ Kumho MX tires

He had 1/2 tank of 93oct costco pump gas.

Not bad for a naturally aspirated dub. to Anthony on a great run.
capitol runs a slight faster than MIR, its a downhill track

downhill? i dont know about that. maybe the track is prepared a little better. i dont think it would be sanctioned if it was downhill..just my opinion.
