Jeff you gotta jump on that FMIC from CCA, it will set that Kia off right! I'm sure we can round up some good deals here. Then the rest can be spent on the fuel tuning so that it lasts.

A freindly compression ratio, closed deck cast block, huge *** rods, probably twice the size of a honda. The head flows really well. The main problem will be fighting the stock ecu.

d16z6 never sees that at the wheels either.

haha, now the NW is gonna own all your non NW regional burnouts in a KIA
