It's not for everyone, but it is a V8 RWD Domestic sedan, and I like it. She rides like cloud.

The personal responsibility train left the station years ago, and you gave it the finger as you watched it leave.

True he did, I'm just trying to decide what my next step should be after replacing the stock exhaust.

The Roots Supercharger? The Twin Screw? The Centrifugal? The Turbocharger? (although this doesn't seem like the right app for a turbo.)

I need to do more research.

always go with the Roots-type... good longevity, easy to tune, good boost capacity and the kits are relatively inexpensive for how long they last. I've seen guys go with the centrifugal types, especially on 4.6L Fords and they just don't last. You're constantly putting bearings in them. I believe that my car and the 3800 Series II V6 have Roots-type superchargers on them.

Do it, do it now. Slap some plastic down and go get yourself a blower. Clean car, enjoy it, I would.

My grandson took his new ride out for a spin, he had his girlfriend snap a couple of photos. He said the power to weight ratio on this thing is incredible, and that it pulls hard all the way thru the powerband.

I can see my oldest son striking the exact same pose when he gets his first bike.

Ya know what?

He hasn't even really ridden it yet, I bought it thinkin' it would be fun out at the dry lakes we go out to, I fired it up and it hauls ass!! Way to much for a 40 pound kid. He rides a little yamaha 50cc dirt bike, but we can adjust the throttle.

This little yellow bike really pulled hard with my 190 pounds on it.
He's gonna have to wait a bit.
