very nice, should work pretty good LMK when you post up

hahah, nice, im working on finishing it, but i wont be able to finish it until spring, the cold air outside stops me from painting or working on the interior. plastic breaks when its cold.

not a chance.. s10 will get smoked, especially by myspree's avenger even moreso if he really is doing a 3.0 swap
um no not if its a 4.3. and why would you run duals on a 3.0L mistu sohc
165 hp on its best day
I mean its not like a sfi 3100 gm that actually needs duals.
BTW why a 3.0 swap didnt the avenger come with a 3.0?

no the avenger came with the 2.5, the 3.0 we can put in can push over 500hp tuned. the 2.5 comes with a stock 165, plus the cool air i have, and all the other little goodies that the person before me added im puching about 180- 200 ( no idea what, but i know it cant be over 200 ) duals are just for look, the body kit i have has dual ports, but the car being a single it looks funny, i could add a Y pipe, but id rather do it right with duals. i know i can, and what i dont know is if there are any benifits, on the 2.5 i have to step from 2.5 pipe to a 2 to have the backpressure right, do i have to do the same wiht the 3.0? or can a keep the 2.5, or add a 3. this car will be boosted and i already am looking for a turbo kit. do you know of any 6 speeds that will bolt up to the 3.0? or am i restricted to a 5?

Actually he's not..
He's stuck with the ever power robbing 4spd auto, which has graced our sleek avengers with the debored 2.5L
Sadly it would take about 10k to make the 2.5 actually perform
uhm true duals on fwd not possible? it has been done and it turned out very nice. didn't add much power but sounded and looked badass.
And no btw the venge never came with a 3.0

My (own/mom's/dad's/friend's/priest├óÔé¼Ôäós) (car/bike/boat/snowboard) is so much better than this POS , as its (a honda/a dodge/europen/african/martian) so obviously is (faster/uses less petrol/looks better/doesn├óÔé¼Ôäót have an axel that falls off/goes round bends better/creates less co2s) and because of (that/these) i am a better person than the driver of the vehicle in question.
