The 09 Theta is strong. Especially with the 5 speed. The bump to 175hp was a nice improvement. I am waiting for someone to crash one around here so I can pick up the engine for my Accent. I want to see if it bolts to the Caliber SRT-4's 6-speed. idhitit.gif

I agree. And since I would be going from an iron block 1.6l to an aluminum 2.4l the weight should stay about the same, just get better gearing and about double the power. That would be a fun car in Street Mod. smile.gif
