OK I did it... I wouldn't believe it if I didn't see it. It's an early 1999 cable car with 44k on it.



The Car is Smooooooooooooooth... It keeps going, the only problem I have is running out of gear.
Best Mod ever!!!

That is very impressive!!!
Does it fit the 3.6 models as well? Can you point me out to the right direction on where i can get more info & who carries it, either in the US or in EU?

Looking forward to more information impressions!

TIA!

Nikos.

It would seem that headers, sport exhaust, V-flow intake, and plenum, plus a little octane boost, and a flash to pull it all together should net some good gains. Like, what? 30 hp on a 3.6? For $3500?? That's almost the same HP:Cost ratio as an SC.
