"No replacement for displacement ". I can't tell you how many times I heard that with my 87 GN, yeah I only had a 3.8L (231 ci) and then I pointed at the TE60 turbo and said..."and theres the other 231 cubic inches, right there!" I assume your not some 60's Woodward generation guys, so don't say that LOL! That kind of thinkin' will get your feelings hurt BADLY out on the streets, just ask all the guys who bought Vettes/GTA's/5.7L IROC's/etc back in 87. Nowadays theres WAY too many SCC runnin' around that kick ass, like the 2.0L turbo/AWD Eagle Talon I saw put 7 cars on a ZR1 off of Telegraph a couple years ago. Ask the guy in the $70K Vette how that felt, and how his 5.7L are doing

Yeah, his name is Chrisregrets, because he regrets getting the automatic slushbox, and not putting a turboed 3l in the tour.... Would have saved him money and they embarrasement of driving and automatic sportscar...
Yea, who ever said it was an automatic?

i think markus said it was an auto because my name looks like regrets? he doesnt know anything anyway. its not an auto, but who cares if it was? id like to see you "save the embarrassment" when a Ford Lightning AUTOMATIC 4 eats your ass by 20 car lengths and 2 secs in the 1/4. haha. but a turbo 3L would be nice, wouldnt have any resale value though. ill post a pic later of the car, im at work now.
