Some say go six, some say stay four or go BIG four.
At what point does the SIX take over? I run a 90 hp four and have been told that my 'lil SIX will make me slower with my 130+ hp. PO says 245hp. Won't truly know 'til dyno day. Which may sway me. What kind of weight increase are we talking about? Will I enjoy the car more on the street with the SIX? Because let's face it I run 1-2 a/x a month compared to my 200 miles street driving. a/x season is coming to an end soon. I'll finish with the four. My project will be during winter. If the SIX is bogus I'll put the four back in. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) Only my time with my car hobby has been spent.
