have a mechanic check it out...or pop the hood, see if it says m power...lol....but then again he might have changed the cover...have a mechanic check it, he might have done a swap but i doubt it....323 is much easier and cheaper to go 3.2l then 3.0...i call b.S.

New to the forum, sup everyone. Very glad I moved up to my 323is, last car was a 96vw Jetta (with most of the mods). Hope the pic I posted shows up. I live in Hawaii... Holla B)
