I'm workin on it man. I got the TB rebuild kit on the way and have pulled the TB off the car already. I have ALOT of cleaning to do under the hood. I also managed to score a timing kit including all chains, guides, tensioner, and gaskets for a mere $35. So this weekend I'll clean and rebuild the throttle body and start pulling the front off the engine.

Wow do a wee bit of research and you'll find that your current preconceptions are quite far off. Even partially screwed, my Rio is quicker than anything I've ridden in or driven. These things had 197 HP off the dealership floor. Light mods put quite a bit more power into them too. With a mild buildup on my Rio I'm looking to hit at least 350 HP with mostly stock components. Not to mention they are all RWD and most of them intercooled and have LSDs as well. They're actually quite impressive for the time they were made if you think about it.
