Sweet deal. I was thinking about Stage II myself, but would like to see some dyno numbers myself first. Also, with the price of gas nowadays I may be contempt with the amount of speed I have right now!

Woot, another 2.4 to 2.0 switch. I will be doing the same trade but for a sunburst orange in about two weeks. Now I feel like I am driving a bucket knowing what I will be getting. I can't wait.

How much is the price difference on the trade in? And how much value does your car lose for being used?

the car actually lost $8000...but i did not have to pay that much....it was cut in half in the 4's somewhere..... but it is definetily worth it

if i get the stage kits, i will dyno it before and after. where is there an accurate dyno in southeast michigan?

Intake and Exhaust are good first mods. OR motor mounts and control arm bushings. It really depends do you want to start off by making power or putting the power to the ground?

You could trade your car up with a dealer but you will still owe the bank a few grand because the dealer definately won't give you full price back. If you go through a private owner you could probably sell it for me so that would be better.

Easiest way is to take your 2.4 to trade to the dealer, get that money. When you go to take another loan for the SS/SC, make sure to take out a little extra to cover the rest of the money you still owe on the 2.4
