Cool

Dont' waste the money. Do constructive things:

Take the upper intake air chamber (Upper intake manifold) off & clean it by hand - Free
Lean the AFM - Free
Change the sparkplugs - $8-12
Change the differential fluid, the A/T fluid (They are seperate), and powersteering fluid - $10
Seafoam the intake, crankcase & gas if you have enough engine - $10
Check/replace the two o2 sensors - $30-60

Make an intake - $20-30
Build a y-pipe - $250-300
