Yes, and you use pounds because it's a constant measurement (a given volume of air can have more or less actual, uh, air in it, depending on temperature and pressure). At a given value for G (gravity), a pound of air is always a certain number of air molecules. They should properly use kilograms, as that can be a measure of mass rather than weight.

Maybe you should think about it from a financial point of view - how many kids CAN we actually afford and still live comfortably? My sister decided one was all she could afford based on her situation. The wife and I decided on two, and apparently you'll be playing the Catholic role in Monty Python's, "Meaning of Life." Ah gently caress, another one. After two kids, enjoy your third row seating, wankers

I've got a ton of 4AGE stuff to get rid of if I'm going through with the V6. It's a shame the 4A can't make the power of the V6 easily (or as smoothly). I've got a metric gently caress tonne of 4cylinder parts. Part of me still wants to toss a rebuilt 4AGE in there for a few years, but the cost of rebuilding one isn't worth it for the (lack of) power output. I could go with a more exotic cylinder head, such as the Smallport or 20v setup. Both add complexity and a few harder to source maintenance items to the build. N/A, I'd be lucky to crack 120whp which would have very little low-end torque (20valves are still gutless motors until you get rolling). For $1500, I'd have a used V6 and LSD MR2 transmission. It'd come with a reliable 175whp and rocket that MR2 off the line. I'd still have to source a few custom bits and refresh the engine - so final costs would be closer to the $2500-$2750 area. The decisions

Sell the lot for cheap and get rid of it. V6 all the way, if you're even slightly leaning towards it you'll regret it if you don't.

That's depressing... I've always lusted after a turbo first gen (I know they only came SC stock).
