No offense meant, but American motor engineering must be pretty shit if you can't get excellent performance out of a car with that power. Just goes to show you that BHP is not the measure of all things.
175hp is great in something like a VW Golf. In a large American car, it sucks.

Hmmmm.... I have a 2.3 turbo Thunderbird that I don't drive much anymore. My dad has a little Triumph TR7 with a dead engine. Now that could be a fun combo!
