I know one of you pros will bag me out (FTO338, this is your chance... again), but why does my engine say SPECIAL on it? Didn't see that on any other FTO I looked at.
Lucky me!

Its not a badge, its painted - just like the Mitsub logo.

Your car used to be owned by Bruce McAvaney, that's why it is special

I think at this point it is pretty safe to say that no-one has a clue! Or am I being a little hasty....

I WISH!!! Mmmm, girlfriend... that guy is soooo fine!
Anyway, I guess there is no real ideas? Sheesh, I thought you guys knew your stuff. All I get around here is pick up lines (Supplanter and G_A_V) and threats (FTO338 - by the way, lawsuit is a comin' your way Mr. Killer-with-a-car-making-threats-crazy-man

).
But seriously, seems weird to add it, it looks factory, the person I got it off didn't touch a thing on the car (except the damn wiring to the CD player and got it all stuffed up!!)

Maybe the last owner thought theyd make a bit of money and fool some tool by painting "special" on it.... tell you what, you can have my engine, its special too....

Put it on a dyno - see what it does.
Then we will know just how special it is. Or isnt
