    Sunfires are ugly cars but at least it's fast! And a 5-speed! Not many on here can say they have 3800 sc power with a stick behind it!

    mainly stock, had a 180* thermostat, colder plugs, flashed and tuned pcm, biggest issue is that it was standard i think so i could rev it higher before shifting, but my pulley was stock and i only was running 8psi, had 109,375 miles or 175xxxkms, the broken piston still has the rod and wrist pin in the cylinder (#4) cylinder (#3) has a broken connecting rod but the head is till good

    you need a rev limiter then set to like 5600 or 5700. thats where it would shift if it was a auto

    no if you read i said i was at 5500 when i was doing 190 or 118mph, the red line starts at 5700 in the sunfire tach so i didnt put it into red, it had a tick for 2 weeks, i only drove it 3 times in that 2 weeks and the third time was the charm, i was barely doing 15km/h when it grenaded, all i seen was smoke out the hids and when i tried to roll it over it just binded so i called a flatbed and got it towed 40km for $180....
