maybe the electric BOV was in full effect

and cmon, the storm stock isn't the most horrible car. it's a basic 2 door sporty lookin coupe. almost a 240sx rip off in looks. while i would never own one, i can think of many cars that are uglier and that i would desire less.

Ive seen a geo storm do 15.5 with cai, header, exhaust. they were 140hp (GSi?) and probably lighter then a 7th gen civic.
