i just hate how people overprice metros

specially when the only things that differ in XFI are , pistons , camshaft , and tranny. (+no ac)(and weight) i think

You cannot get a base model to achieve the same gas mileage as an XFI. Trust me I tried for a very long time. I completely rebuilt a base model with an xfi camshaft in it. Put exactly the right tire diameter in order to achieve the same gear ratio as the xfi model, and I still didnt come close. There are too many other factors involved.
