I think the sleeper look is only effective on cars that are usually heavily modified or look really good stock. If you're going to go through the effort to take an Alero to those power levels, you might as well let people know from a distance that you are serious. An 11-second minivan sleeper still looks like a shitty minivan. I say go all out! Bodykit, hoodscoops (hopefully funtional), full paint and sweet lightweight rims.

Shitty minivan or not, 11 seconds is insane for a box on wheels with a 2.4 litre inline 4..

and go for the race look, like they said.. If your gonna have a car that kicks ass, why not make it look kick ass?

When I do, airflow to the intercooler will be reduced significantly through that narrow air duct on the stock cover. Just a thought, and something to consider in weighing the options.

So if you keep the Kato front end that you have you won't have to do all that work? I'd say keep that then for sure, and then I'd personally leave it as is so people may still question how serious your car is, not quite as much as a completely stock-looking car, but more than if you went full out race car. My 2 cents.

I wouldn't call that being "off topic". It's in fact, the whole reason for this thread/poll. Thanks for the input.

The exterior is the same as it always was. The signature is a photoshop of the hoodscoop I have sitting here ready to go on, and I chopped it from the following picture:
