    First off....DAYUM, didn't know I could get kicked by a 2.5L Fusion
    Oh well, I'm over it

    and second...

    Is there any thing I can do without spending more than the cars worth to give her a few extra HP
    Well, how much is the car worth exactly??
    I'm amazed nobody has mentioned this already, but I'm sure a top-swap would give you enough HP to smoke the Fusion.

    Uhm did you type slang? LOL awesome! just playin around bud. Seriously though; Turbo is most expensive, supercharger is least expensive. Both great, but if you are on a low budget, sell it, and get a GTP...

    Yea, I kinda wanted a GTP from the get-go but all the GTP's I could find were already beat to H311 and back so there wasn't much reason to buy one only to have to fix it back up. Plus, I really wanted a coupe and I couldn't find a GTP coupe for my price range that had decent miles and ran good etc etc. (I did find one GTP coupe, but the interior was torn up REAL bad and it already had 250k and needed some TLC).

    But, I managed to find my current GP instead.

    Now, It's not a factory GTP, but I'm not ruling out a future top-swap or perhaps total engine swap. That won't be anytime soon though, maybe in a year or two....

    Can't say I've ever done that before, but there was a kid around here that tried rollerskating (with inline skates) behind a car. I wasn't there to see it, but I heard that everything was going good until he found a pothole at 35MPH. Long and short he ended up in the hospital with God-knows how many broken bones and a concussion. Luckily he's still around to talk about that one.

    Yea we used to line up 2 cars have the passenger hold the cart and dude in the cart hold the car untill well either we ate pavement or we would both let go same time and whoever didnt eat rocks or made it to X point first won. There foggy memories tho..... Dumb as hell but made for a good 20 minutes
