Default RE: did anyone see/post this?

Thanks! I doubt they will change that much in one year; however, a person back at DF is making a claim that the 6.1L is supposed to receive a huge hp boost. This guy is not one of the top memebers like TechmanBD, or Patrick (aka. 1 Bad Mirada & BadStratRT) so I'm taking his remakes with a mountain of salt.

As far as the compression ratios go, with current technology that isn't always bad. For example, in the Intrepid (and Chrysler and Eagle versions as well) the 3.5L started out with a 10.4 to 1 compression ratio, in either 95 or 96 they dropped it down to a 9.6 to 1 compression ratio. The output remained the same as did the acceleration. Technology improved to where they didn't need the higher compression ratio. I won't worry.
