No I won't have to mod a Vette as much as I would this car.
This car being a 3 speed auto.

But it's a moot point 'Cause They won't finance this with 80,000 miles.....

But I got them to run the cobra ..........I just don't think My credit can pull it off

frankly, terminators dont impress me.. My brothers friend slapped a little Garrett 75 MM turbo on, homemade piping and everything, cost him 1500. pushed same power as termi that a friend of mine owns, blew it away... termis are WAY over rated in some terms...



Also the one with the Garrett was only bushing ~7-8 lbs of boost on a stock 01 GT 4.6

but thats the thing.. you actually spend money for good HP ratings... LSX motors are one of the best motors ive ever seen. If i could, id throw a ls7 in my fox.. the breathing capacity is a hell of a lot better then the shity modular...
