Sup, I'm Marlin and this is my '05 Saturn ION Redline. She's all stock for now (just bought her 3 days ago), but i have some planned upgrades down the road for her.

I was really surprised at how much of a difference the supercharger makes on these. Hopefully I will be able to adjust the rev limiter. It kicks in before you get to 75% of the power band, but it's still pretty damn fast!

I'm still debating on keeping the badges or not. They are pretty subtle (except for the ones on the fenders), but with it just being cosmetics, i'm not too concerned. I do like the seats quite a bit, and doubt I would change them. They are comfortable, not too flashy, not too much leather (sucks on a hot day). I might change the color of the cloth centers, but that's not a big priority. I'm more concerned with improving the Horsepower/Handling, but still being able to afford the gas to drive it! Yeah.. they don't usually go together but I'm going to see what I can come up with ^.^

And the suicide doors.. though not that functional for picking up the groceries.. easy for my kiddo or smaller friends to get out of, and looks tight.. so WIN imo!
