type s engine
My sh motor was in rough rough shape. ended up going with the type s, w/tranny. compression on the new motor is 235 per cylinder. pulls hard, feels much quicker, but then again its been awhile since my car ran right. havn't noticed any oil burning yet. gas milage has increased a ton. i guess the trannys are exactly the same, gear ratio feels the same. i opted to go with the tranny also tho because mine was developing grinds.

the swap sucked. but its in and over with, so no use crying over split milk.

i'll be in NJ may 5th i hope, so anyone that'd like to try it out

that is all

I cant wait to see how fast it is.. But judging by your exhaust leak... it might not be as fast as it is supposed to be.. It is leaking by the cat?? hmmm.. i wonder if bruno can do a quick fix..

I told you it was ATTS and not LSD. Hehe. So how is it? You had a week to drive it around.

it's not a full-time LSD. u will see the difference later.. It only works when pushed hard in a turn... not during launches or acceleration
