Like Dingo said, listen to the idle. It sounds like it can barely run. An aftermarket cam makes the car's idle lope (or fire unevenly compared to stock). The more irratic the idle, the bigger th cam. By the sound of it, this thing had a MONSTER fuckin cam.

Dingo...I hear ya, but the power isn't TOO bad. It's something like 215hp on the newer ones which isn't terrible...but not great. I just remember the one I saw with a turbo kit that made 600hp. I love the look of the car, it's RWD, and the idea of 600hp in a car that small is just peachy.

V8...16" BEFORE the canister ain't too bad. I thought you meant to total...that would totally suck.
