Congrats on the good news!! Now you get a car that is better than before!! Might have been a good deal in the end for ya....it is always great to see when the system works the way it should, and the dealer does the right thing. Yet another reason to have a relationship with your dealer!!

Powerwise, a SC pulley, intake, cat-back, and custom tune would be a start Then a cam, head, header in stage 2.

Im not really sure why.. what they said was that the cylinder was misfiring and the previous owner had the same issue so they decided that the engine had to be replaced.
