The sickness is comming back Options

As some of you know, I'm driving a 94 Topaz while I get money saved up for other things. She's a good little beater with 186xxx on the clock, but no get up and go. That's ok, because she lookes like hell and I got her for $250. A couple of days ago the exhaust rotted apart in one spot. The exhaust system is going to need to be replaced.

Is it bad that the first thing to my mind was a 14b and 3" back to replace the exhaust with? What is this thing that makes me want to make power where there is none. Damn these DSMs and their great power potential. They have made me want to mod a Ford.

Wow, can't help you with your disease as I think most of us suffer from the same thing. I have driven a Topaz before and yes they jimungous hunks of worthless dog turds when it comes to going anywhere in a hurry. My S10 is the same way, slow as piss. Despite the availability of turbo kits from Cavaliers (it has the 2.2L Cavy motor in it) I've managed to hold myself back. Mainly because, it's reliable as it is and I know if I tinker with it that much it will break much like my DSM has. It would take me anywhere in the country I wanted to go at a moments notice and that's the way I like it. Reliability.
