yeah i would be on a 5 year plan but take more than average amounts of classes so i can get out of here earlier...

taking like 12 credit hours (which is average), you will never ever graduate

OK so i may look into the TB swap. Does it effect mileage any, i'm already only getting 15 or so (about 13 on a race tank).

I found the dyno sheet for stock- 225@3200 & 140@3200 (wow, that really IS underpowered...hmm). Does anybody have a dyno skeet for a V8 TB on the 3.9?

Also, might somebody by chance know the spring rate for the leaves?

At SCCA, i was 2" below the DQ threshold with a 3/4 tank of fuel. I'm wondering if i have less (6 pounds per gallon adds up!), will i be higher than max?
