ok when looking down to the ground on the manifold I see this big bulge it looks like a cat.Is it one? is the muffler looking thing under the middle of the car a muffler? if so why does this car have two mufflers? what do i need to remove modify for better air flow? also speed limiter. 105 is really slow!!! I was reading in the haynes manual that there is a relay under the dash that controls this,yet every where else they say it is managed by the ecu. I really want to get rid of this stupid limitation.

last thing i am going to see what i can do for turbocharging. I have a quite bit of knowledge in this area and i have the T3 turbo from the 240 left over. First compression needs to get lower , 2 head gaskets should solve this. since there is no ecu made for controlling a turbo in contours a turbo controller will need to be added. Also intercooler,wastegate, detonatioon sensor,air fuel monitor. i will keep you posted on how it turns out
