The â??99 model year meant more horsepower for the SVT Contour, increasing it to an even 200. This was accomplished through more aggressive use of the Extrude Hone Powerflowâ?¢ process. The EEC-V module was also recalibrated for increased torque. Wider tires for improved traction was another improvement. Prairie tan leather was added as an interior color option.
That doesnt say anything about the UIM, that is most certainly talking about the larger LIM and extrude honed heads that are found in the 99+ SVT's.
Are we going to take car and drivers report (the ONLY report thats turned up stating that the UIM was honed more) as fact? I'm thinking maybe it could've been a misunderstanding from Car and Driver, especially since this recent data seems to suggest otherwise.
The only thing yet to figure out is why the ports on those newer UIM's are different, maybe they only increased the size of those ports to match the larger LIM's they used (e.g. port matched, and didnt actually EH the UIMs)?
