The Dodge Stealth is the same car as the Mitsubishi 3000GT. You have the ES version which is non-turbo. I'm pretty sure your only opption on exhaust is Borla since you have the N/A modle and thats like $800. There are not as many parts for the non-turbo modle as the turbo modle. They make a fair amount of parts for your car, it just a matter of finding them.

thanks for the advice guys. If i had to list all the reasons i had to sell the SS then you would be reading for a very, very, very long time. LOL</P>


And thanx for the links, I wish they would make the stuff for this car a lot cheaper. The prices on some of those kits are outragous.</P>


Anyway thanx<IMG src=smileys/smiley14.gif border="0"></P>

The mitsubishi 3.0L V6's are notorious for oil leaks. Almost every one that I have seen leak oil.<img border="0" src=smileys/smiley5.gif border="0">
