    It's a good start! Do you have a 5.4 on a stand in the garage?

    No... I destroyed the 5.4 in my F150 (twice) and decided it would be a better truck with a 6.8 V10, so I had to have the proper emblems on the truck. Yes, I really did V10 swap the truck, no I have no intention of putting a V8 in the Prius :)

    Make sure you put 4" tail pipe extenders to handle that massive exhaust!

    I do like turbos! I have a 95 Lexus SC300 which I boosted and a turbo motorcycle.

    Hah... watch out. You'll get all these Prius tree huggers in a tizzy! Like the humor but definitely not my cup of tea, I prefer no emblems what so ever.
