Added 300hp to the Vibe! Click here to find out how

Post by kunkstyle »

That's right. A whole extra 300 hp. By parking another car beside it The wife and I are getting to the point where we needed a second car and she let me pick it out. A 2000 911 C2. Probably not what she had in mind.

The 'turbo twists' instead of the 'turbo look'. Same look, only lighter. Put in some cup holders from ultimatecupholders.com today, and have the clear sidemarkers instead of the orange ones. No turbo planned yet. If I want to go that route I'll probably sell this and buy a TT.

Too bad it wasn't a few years ago when they had the "Reasonable and Prudent" speed limit Tell me about it. I was down there when they still had it (just in a Monte Carlo, however). Heading back I was missing those days. Although I probably would have wound it up well past 'reasonable and/or prudent'...

New, probably close or more. Used in the years I was looking at was about a 5k jump. The biggest problem was finding a manual with the AWD. Any of the AWD's with the options I wanted were tiptronic.
