Yeah thats damn exotic Ryan, but the point is that if you are into getting
the most out of your engine, you are always into it. Be it a 60.000K SC
setup, or a stock 2.5 4cyl. The problem these days is that people dont give
a shit. Then when the numbers come up, they (people with money and
political pout) blame all the V8 owners out there. We are the scape goats.
13.10 is that in FT 4x4? If so, damn good!
