Same, the extra 5hp comes from magical ferries that were set free in the engine from the factory!

The only other explanation is that it is corporate BS that was shoved down the publics throat, and we all know that Nissan would never do that.

Wheres a good place to get one- dealer?

I am sceptical going to an auto parts store because I don't want to end up with one that sounds like a go-cart. Yet don;t want to spend and arm and a leg either. As it is I have to spend $6,000 to get damage fixed from a hail storm last week. This just adds to the fun.
