But he only has one horsepower! And no torque rating!

difference:

94 olds 88 n/a - 102K, runs perfect --- pulls you back until 2nd gear

94 SSEi Bonneville - 108K, runs perfect --- keeps pulling you back after 2nd gear.

There is a difference although I do not know it it is worth the repair/upkeep/insurance/transmission problems. I know the transmissions are built better but I dont think they were designed for that L27/L36 torque.

Boost gauge = addicting.
