Hmm.. Gonna have to ask Bill about that. I was under the impression it'* stock right now (2.85), and I was going to go to the 2.5.

You start thinking about NA engines as a totally different inefficient form of combustion
Very true in mountianous and hilly terrian. Boosted car'* PCM will increace boost to conquer hills in OD, NA cars must downshift for the extra power reducing fuel efficiency.

When I planned on selling it I checked around. Most people wouldn't buy a modded car. The engine mods were taken off. That is the stock pulley. As well the airbox was put back in and the pipe was sold.

Fantastic.. the SC engine downshifts as well. Because the owner wants to enjoy a spirited drive through the hills.

I agree with the exhaust thing. By a stroke of luck, I found someone who will work with me on the exhaust. I want performance, but I want legal performance. Last thing I want to do is a custom exhaust system and then fail emissions because some idjit wasn't honest with me.

Best part is that the guy is literally down the hill from me.
