Very solid and a blast to drive. AFPR and small
plug gap were initial problems. Performance Buyers
Club is my source for parts, help, and most of the
installation work- recommended! Bill Cardell has solved
my most difficult problems (low fuel pressure, incorrect
AFPR installation) - also highly recommended! |

Sebring upgrade pulley/belt after installation of an
'87 Saab 900 intercooler, dyno run to see what Jackson
exhaust and intercooler added |

I luv it and drive about 35k miles a year on it :) |
| Upcoming |
An oil change in another 10k miles, switch to Magnecor wires at the next maint. interval, maybe a JR ceramic header someday, and if I really want to go fast I will save all that supercharger and turbo money for more sticky Hoosiers tires to tame all that NA power. |
