headers? we 4-cylinder guys only need 1 header. MUAHAHAHAHA cheaper parts.. and yeah I know you've got an RS too, im just messing around.

But anyway, yeah these cars are slow. How much did you pay for it anyway?

To the guy who said that turboing the MX3 1.6 DOHC will blow it up, I have been running up to 10psi on my DOHC engine and the car is still going fine.

I have been turbocharged for over a year now.

It all has to do with setup and tuning.
