600 Horsepower Viper Now Out
Not a comparison at all, just stating different approaches to achieve
the same end result. What's so great about getting 600 HP out of 8.4L?
Using displacement for HP is real low-tech - even Ford...

Exhaust gas is inert. Adding it to the intake stream increases the
charge density and thus the amount of gas that will be expanded by

Dodge Stratus 1998 Brake problem
Try adjusting the rear brakes. If they are out of adjustment it will
require a lot of pedal travel to get the brakes to engage. The smallest
