So, has anyone put a Duramax in an FR-S or BRZ yet? It would totally fix the torque dip issue.
Please do try to bear the cringeworthy wannabe Morgan Freeman narrating. [ame="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C3bBiqIWffY"]The Duramax Camaro and Cummins Charger take to the streets. - YouTube[/ame] |

coping skills. but cognitive dissonance persists, even if we don't express it... EDIT: @Tcoat and others, interestingly enough, we have a lot of research (and I did some of my own to recreate it in a more recent setting) that shows that the more alternatives and info/opinions you seek out in a given purchase, the less sure of you will be of your choice. There is a point, of course, because if you make a decision without some info on how it works, you can't use it, but after that....you're just hurting yourself.

But consider the price in weight to swap to a different motor to make hat power.

Exactly! It is something I battle all the freakin' time in the health and safety field. You have no idea how hard I laughed when those words popped up on my screen since this is the last place I ever would of expected to see them written even though this place is rife with it.
