I drove one of those things... I have to say its quicker stock vs stock than my focus and civic, but I've heard MANY people say it can't handle more than 225whp... Sad.. I saw one at a dealership that looked like a porch 911 ( I know it sounds CRAZY, but its true !!! They wanted $22K for it.. ).
I've heard the 4 banger tib motor is MUCH better to mod ( as crzy as that sounds.. )

D15B3 ?? I'm thinking its DPFI..
The newer v6 ones look ok IMO. I'd still never drive one.
