I've raced 2 05 V6's and neither impressed me. The first guy I beat stopped next to me at the next light, and asked me if I had a V8

Not like my license plate says anything, maybe he was too far back to read it tho.

yes, the rental company has a more complex ecu that cannot be fully tuned to the perameters available on "unlocked" ecu's. the rental was a 5 speed as well.
