no, for the fact that he can pull like a ************ off the line, if he hooks. What do you have to make 375 at the rear wheels?

I thought you had a 3.4 and your car isn't a 98+ That ad does you no justice.

yeah 97 got the newer stuff just not the body style, if I'm thinking correctly, they got the 97+ console (obviously) and the 3.8L engine, but the new style was 98+ right?

No, 375 FWHP, I say FWHP because I was talking about his car having 400 FWHP. ported AFR aluminum heads, E-303 cam, Trick Flow Track Heat....and every other bolt on to go with it. If I can't beat him N/A, I'll use the and make it a sure thing.
