OK probably a silly question but seeing as how I owned a V6 and I've never test driven the v8 how much of a power difference is there really? Like 100%, 50%?

Haha. I already tried to trade it in but they wouldn't give me enough to make it happen. I've got my eye on a 17 1le

Don't do it unless you're ready to buy a v8 you will never sleep comfortably again once you test drive a v8

Ok so my plan was to polish my strut tower brace and paint the ends black to give it some contrast. I only had chrome polish and did it by hand but I ordered some Adams 2 step polish so it should turn out much better. Anyways here is some progress
