If you're getting paid $7 / hour, it's illegal, unless it's a commission and / or tips earning position.

BTW, Hawaii might not be the poorest area, but it's the most expensive to live in.
A gallon of milk breaks $7.
Gasoline on the neighbor islands have already broken $4 / gallon.
A loaf of bread is $3.
Hawaii has the highest COLA index in the nation - 26%?

Back to the topic...
Acceleration wise, I doubt most will feel the difference.
The complaints about the 3.9 rear is mostly due to the combination of the 3.9 rear *and* the automatic trans.
You cannot get a 3.9 rear with a manual trans from the factory.
If you have a very sensitive butt dyno, you might feel the acceleration difference.
Is that what you're looking for?

Really, there is no significant, positive reason to go with a 3.9 rear with a stockish 13B...

$7.25, I couldn't remember the change. Haha. But yeah, I know that HI is expensive as hell. I had to look for honeymoon prices to there once.

And yes, that was exactly what I was looking for.
