tuned at cms in lake elsinore, ca.
got some good results for just a cold air intake and ported tb.
my restrictions are the manifolds but i was pretty impressed.




definitely worth it.

You have my dream car! It is beautiful! I almost bought a $200 91 RS so I could build it like this. I might sell my Gen 1 powered 4th gen so I could do something like yours. I've had 3 - 3rd gens and regret selling all of them.!

i really like 3rd gens in my area you rarely see them out in the streets, id liek to have a 4th gen as a daily driver and keep this one covered.

Thanks for the info. It will come in handy when I get my 3rd gen. Were any modifications necessary to make them fit in there?
