If I can pull 2k (or how ever much it is) out of my ass I would like to twin screw it...
but turbo would be the route I go..
So my Auto 2.4 isn't hopless on the power side of things after all?

to us who drive a 5 speed and mod it...its all about "being one with the car" lol...couldnt think of a better way to say it...
we like shifting up and down, feeling the revs and the power throught he clutch and gas, being able to slip the clutch to gain traction on a launch....its a whole nother experiance

Yeah. That's exactly what I ment buy is not as fun. Driving a 5-speed is that your in control of the car not some computer tell your car to shift before it blows a valve spring through the valve body. lol

pullies installed...alternaor one was a bitch and a half lolol
crank was much easier. took me about 2 hours from start to clean up to do it all...not too bad lol
DEF notice a difference while driving. first gear rips through lol, second some too and the rest are harder pull up to my normal power band
should be really nice after al the other parts are added
