I drive mine back and forth from Grimsby to Toronto daily. 220KM round trip.
I have in excess of 25000K's on my 3L... NO problems.
The only recommendataion at i think ya gotta have is exhaust. I noticed a huge improvement swaping out the stock setup with a modified y pipe and 2.5 inch piping. This may be where many of the gains come from. I know that the exhaust manifolds alone are far superior for the contour as the taurus ones I removed from my 3L.
