Thank you for the big smile this morning Fazm, you have one of my fave cars on this site. I can imagine the Vette owner yelling....WTF, WTF.....a sixxer?????????? LOL.....I would love to be a fly on the wall when he takes his car to the mechanic with the complaints of loss of power.

Fazm, when you bought the car, did you buy a V6 with the intentions of going turbo, or how did that work? I've curious about it for awhile, especially since your sig says "just can't afford 8 cylinders", lol!

I met a guy a few weekends ago that is building up his V6.. he works at a performance shop that works on primarily 4cyl imports.. He said he didn't think the v8 was worth it.. and the used v6s were much cheaper.. he recently got a N20 system for his..

No intentions of going turbo when I got it. Just wasn't going to pay over msrp for a v8.

Still thinking about selling'er fazm? I hope not, I too am a fan of your car, and the one-liners it allows you to come up with
