They're not that fast unless it's got aftermarket Turbo. My v6 manual tranny will hang with it from a roll. All I have istrue dual exhaust.From a dig it'll walk away, slowly on me.

After you beat him you should tell him that was just 6 cyclinders it's idleing rough because two cylinders were misfiring [8D]

I love people that have zero clues about cars, let alone performance....

you sure he didn't mean 220Kph?? The only way I can see it hitting 220mph if it were dropped off a plane at 30,000 ft [&:]

Not to mention..stage 2 governor...LOL umm..just tell him you're only running on 6 cylinders

hahahaha yea... good stuff. I can't wait man, just can't wait. Can I still take it on 12 degrees and 87 gas? I don't really feel like bumpin up but I will if I need to do, I'd probablyu like the extra power anyways Might be a good idea, It could use a lil extra oomph for pullin in 2nd, I dunno if it would make enough difference though.
