I just replaced my 1.8 w/ a 2.0 so now I have a block lying around.  I wanna
get rid of it.  Dunno how much I can get 4 it.  I have someone who wants it
for $75 bucks.  I need it out of here ASAP.  Anyway... I've been really
pleased w/ the 2.0.  Now all I need for now are the Euro bumbers.  Also...
should I buy the enrichment module or the Velocity II Diff Kit?  If
neither...what would be the most effective for the 2.0?  Well, I guess this
is all for now...  TIA

Mike
