He he he..... 200hp, me too but don't repeat that on the list.... oupsss!!!!
Don't listen to what i say, am a dumb frog.

Once, when i was in Nevada/Utah i did pushed my 87 2.1 at 140kmh (88mph)
with no wind condition, the van was very stable, and the engine too...(LOL)
This one was screaming like hell.... i could hear the rods screaming for
help, they were ready to burst out of the case and make a hole the size of a
baseball...

Anyway, like i always said, that big van is underpowered, we all know that,
but that life.

I can imagine a nice 2.3 Accord I-4 conversion.

But i like the 2.1L with all it's problems, it give me something to do on my
web-page.

Hey, it's a VW super leaker.......

2 days to go... and am comming south..... yeeaaaa baby.

Cheers, Ben
