    New cat-back is awesome, unreal how much of a difference it made even in just smoothing everything out. The previous chokemaster musta been really really bad.
    What War said, I run my torque app using U.S. MPG's.

    I have special plans for the remains of your grill, you'll see in a few weeks ;)

    The more research I did, the more I found out the tC outperforms the FR-s in every way. tC has better torque and much lower RPM HP peak then the FR-s, making it much more versatile. With my minor tweaks for less then 100$, it will even more then out perform the FR-s. Plus almost double the interior room, rear seats, open trunk and much cheaper cost made the tC win out hands down. Only thing the FR-s had better was Rear Wheel Drive.

    Frs has a much much stiffer chassis. And the performance engine wise is due to the fact thatthe frs has half a liter less, but car is very light. and it has di.

    But i guess you canadians like fwd better thanks to that white stuff that i heard u people call snow. That is a really nice red.

    Nice deal and a nice looking ride.

    Save up some cash and buy a beater Tacoma next year. I say that not knowing how insurance rates and tag/registration fees are in the GWN.

    It seems like there is always a need for a pick up in the family.

    The FR-s is only 300-ish pounds lighter, which makes sense considering its a smaller car. I wanted something larger and more practical. and while making the same power as my 2.5L using only a 2.0L is pretty impressive. It means nothing for what my intentions are.
    :thumbsup: thx!
    I'm planning to be all set to buy the 3rd gen when it hits the market :D
    Bearer?? :notsure: Currently the tC has a 2.5 L 2AR-FEengine. I'm going to be doing a Naturally Aspirated build-ish on it. A couple things to bring the powerband lower so the cars more useable. I bought it for the purpose of downsizing to save money for starting my own company. If I'm going to boost it or convert to RWD, it'll be at least 2-3 years.
