Yeah I like those. My friend has a 04 SC with pullies, muffler and a few other things. I smoked him with a stock 90 LS. But I love those cars.

Yeah you got that right. I just got back from driving, and it hugs the corners like crazy. It's got DSC (Dynamic Stability Control) which makes it practically impossible to lose control.
