my daughter bought one of those and its gutless, the old corsica with the 3.1tpi would beat it no problem so if your running good and drive good u should be smiling.

im giving it to the mustang pretty easily.... both v6 auto so launching shouldnt be too tricky. 193hp in the stang vs your 3.4. i dont remember the hp rating but i believe you are a better match for the single port 3.8 mustangs

Stang will win, the 60* 3.4 has almost more potential hidden in it than the 3.8, but it needs to be massaged to come out. Stock engine though, they blow. You've got 160hp at the crank stock, probably 120-130hp at the wheels.

Hey specterGT, i won! HA HA HA. My car had a little bit quicker acceleration than the mustang. I was about 1 car ahead of her when i let off around 80. So craby knows his stuff obvioulsy. My friend has the EXACT same model of mustang and he didnt beleive that i beat her so he wants to race me. Little does he know, that im getting an SLR performance chip on friday. Average hp gain is 32. Idk if thats true but the lowest hp gain on their examples was a 11 and the max was 62. Wanna try again specter?

lol that was a guess judging by how bad my daughters car goes. im not real up on the chevy 6s and figured the 3.4 would go better than the fuel injected 3.1 in the corsica. better watch your step callin specter out. lol. he and music man been into these cars longer than i and i have depended on there knowledge more than once. against a better running stang and driver the tide may change.
