Re: Realistic SL mpg and K/N air filter

What's driving me nuts now is that my son is just itching to swap a dohc SL2 engine in it just to get 20/30 more HP. I told him if he wanted to go through all that mess, why not stuff a 2.2 ecotech from an L200 in it or maybe ditch the whole front wheel drive thing, go rear wheel and cram a Pontiac 455 of mine in it. Yeah I know I'm talking stupid but the point I'm trying to get into my kids head is that as unglorious as the SL1 engine may be, it does have potential to make substantially more HP with out having to swap engines.
