Oh and you'll lose to the saturn, it's sad because it's a GM piece of crap, in the ranks of kia, daewoo, and hyundai but you'll lose. 3.0 v6 would take the 2.0 especially because of the automatic. If you had a manual you'll still lose though. Sorry it's the truth.

BDM,

132 hp is the rated hp at the flywheel, not the wheels. so you loose aprox 10 horse to the trans.

and, I really don't think you'll get 10 horse from the CAI, but I may be wrong?????





Anyone????

ive raced a tiburon with my sxt and i have to say it's way overrated and not what i thought it would be cause i took it, just goes to show you that korea still needs to work on there vehicles performance and looks because they dont look great. And saturn is not that great either.

Ya the engine is whats overrated or maybe the tranny and gear box is what is in need of improvement, but the design, the front light look like a cheap knockoff of the supra and the overall body style does too. Can't they come up with something original. Same with Kia making cars look like the protege and protege 5 and eggshape healights on the other luxury kia, come on! At least honda came out with the mini mini van civic si, a copy and smaller versiojn of the Odyseus, (not sure if thats spelled right).
