hmmm wonder if its modified enough that it wouldnt fit in a VX. i quite fancy the s/c version with 320 hp... but 0w-40 oil..?

I want those headers...with the pipes sticking out the side of my front fenders...:smilewink

Also, my guess would be that most of the extra HP is found in remapping the ECU, also, no cats/restrictive exhaust.

Cant believe you guys didnt know about this. From what I recall, this was the reason for the Alpine supercharger kit to begin with.
