The intake manifolds off of Dodge Caravan's are better than our stock ones - and lets get some MultiPort Injection systems from Australia, convert them, create our own harnesses and create an upgrade for our cars to MPI from a throttle body setup - those people are the hardcore enthusiasts. You also got the people who dropped in the 4G63 engine ( Eclipse engine ) into our cars - a FWD engine into a RWD car? Took some research, but a 4G64 ( same block as 4G63 only in rwd format ) with a 4G63 turbo head fit. But it didn't fit the tranny - somehow, they managed to discover that with a 2nd gen RX7 tranny and a Ford Turbo Probe clutch, that the engine setup would just fall right in. These types of people are the no bullshit true type enthusiast about the car they own, and ever car make has them
