Tony!

How many times do I have to throw my hat into the ring, man? :) I offered to
take the group
once or twice already, so I'm offering again. I certainly don't mind just being
a moderator,
instead of the owner... just add me already!

Anyway, good job on the SRT. I hit a deer with mine a couple months ago, so I
managed to get a
carbon fiber replacement for the hood. Note: don't mess your hood up - it's $800
to replace. My
Carbon By Design hood was the best I could find, and it was still less than the
stock part.
Ouch. Other than that, I haven't managed to do anything to my car. It's begging
for a
suspension that's at least as good as the one on my '96, but I can't afford
that. After that,
I'm going to Hahn for some help with power...

The SOHC is still running strong and getting the best mileage it's ever gotten
by far. I don't
know what's causing it, but I'm happy with it. I'm tempted to gut the car in an
attempt to
lighten it as much as possible just to see how many MPG I can get. :P
