it was in the new sport compact. no pics though. just small thing in the rumor mill section. i'm ready to wait for it though. i don't like the body on the new si anyway. i just want the motor and trany.

Well, with a 3500 mile break in time and a removed air box the new Si made 209 hp to the wheels. I'd venture to say the K20z3 is underrated.
