There is a member here, Gator, I talk to him here and there, and he says his is running killer. He is all smiles when he talks about it. I am dying to line them up side by side, after my radiator gets in I will see if he will.
After I get my methanol injection system in we'll race all three. ;D
Oh look, i just gave you a whole new "all talk and no action" topic to police! haha

Hey, sorry to keep you waiting on a response to your question about the swap. I've been busy lately with the birth of my 3rd son. (Probably selling the Aurora soon; hardly able to fit two booster seats and a baby carrier back there.)
Anyway.. The car runs great. I have the Autobahn edition with the VIN '9' 4.6, so the power is all top end. I can really tell a difference between say 20mph and 80mph. I think a sportier feel would be if someone did the swap to a non-Autobahn and used the VIN 'Y' engine. They'd have the benefit of more low-end torque.
