Same motor would be used just a different intake manny. Just sell the almost new one on CL when you take it off

Also, you may need to change your tag line to "You can't fix revoked" if you keep street racing.
Its only racing if you break the speed limit. I beat alot of people to the speed limit light to light in my town. You know the ones... that try to take off and beat you in the right lane as its ending

I'm looking at Hooker 2055s followed by 3" SLP cat-back. I have some ****ed up multi-crossover setup with dual cats and pipes that get larger, smaller, and larger again. It leaks, it's restrictive, it sounds bad, and I can't install my passenger side subframe connector until I get the cat out of the way.

Renix is '87-90 with closed cooling and no diagnostics. Everything gets tested with a multimeter, and there's no CEL. Before Renix was the Chevy V6, and after Renix is the High Output.

I was terrified of Renix cause I always heard bad things. Now I kinda like it cause it's simple, but my problems would be much easier to diagnose if I could use a code reader. I do like that my Renix is old enough for Historic tags so I don't have to do any inspections.

I would base it off which body style and interior you want, see what you can find for sale and with which options, and compare cost.
