You can have one of the three.

Yeah, I know I'm dreaming. Earlier this summer I was driving the and Talon got passed by a 350Z with a few stickers (it probably had an intake and a cat-back), but I didn't start anything because I didn't know I could win. I didn't know...(dramatic pause) I just want be able to handle something like that. I know it won't be a 13 second car or anything.

As far as fuel efficiency, I opened up the intake and exhaust on my last car, and I ended up getting better mileage than stock. I was hoping that would be the case with this car, too. Is that an unrealistic goal?

Aslong as you aren't driving more agressively you should see better highway fuel mileage.
