I believe the Honda Oddessy is the fastest stock minivan in the US... 240hp. Faster than your average Civic anyway.

Minivans do have power. How else will they haul 7 people? I once "took on" a Nissan Quest because the driver was being an idiot. I had to hold back because it was a 2 lane road merging into a 1 lane road so.... thats my story. I know the old school Caravans (1980's) had a turbo model. I have visted some of those Caravan sites and the people do a lot of work with their turbo Caravans. I saw 1 beat a Z28 (about 1996) before on a strip. Beware the vans haha

I wonder how much gain I can get with a simple SRI or CAI on the family sienna or even an aftermarket cat-back... [IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG] hopefully up-to-par with the 240hp oddysey (speelling?)
