its a waste of money because it actually gives you less flow into the engine so if you want to go ahead but dont expect any performance gain just expect a lighter wallet

well as far as that goes those two words cant be used in the same sentence but do a tune up new plugs new wires mabye a new cap and rotor for the distributer and run some sea foam through it also try out the throttle cable mod

Vehicles are only as good as the person maintaining it.

People have made comments to me about mine as well. Hell, I paid $500 for it with a bad engine. I probably have another $1300 or so in repairs now but it's paid for and Rangers have a good reliabilty reputation. I don't think I did so bad.
