If you're going through a divorce, why not pick up an faux-wood-paneled 1980s Dodge Caravan and tune the snot out of its four-cylinder mill instead of drinking yourself into a sobbing stupor every night? That's exactly what Paul Smith did, resulting in red-faced ponycar drivers and 12.65-second timeslips. And how might one turn a Mopar minivan into a fire-breathing strip warrior? Turbocharging and intercooling, friends. Those Chrysler fours responded legendarily well to forced induction; so much so that once upon a time that Warren Mosler used 'em in his stupid-fast Consuliers. Just the thing for putting a hex on the 5.0 crew, no?
