What should I get?

Alright, my gf asked me what I want for Xmas. I have 4 things in mind so hopefully u guys can help me pick.

1. CAI w/bypass valve
2. sways
3. LCD for my pc
4. digital camera

1 and 2 I dont really need since im going back to school next semester and wont be driving the car much. 3 I dont really need either since I dont use my pc much, i use the laptop. 4 well i dont even take pics. haha just felt like owning one.

They are all around $300-$400, she already oked all of them. Now I just need to pick on. WHat do you guys think?

Sways 'cause that shit won't be obsolete in three months.
Plus your car will perform better.

It's tough between the intake and sways, but i'd go with the factor and get the intake.

1. Get the sways -- nothing like a good "stabilizer" bar to keep roll down (plus, the price of Comptech stuff seems to go up with time).

2. You could go for the CAI, but for the same money, if all goes well, you could get a RES (and it looks like it would be much easier to install) However, Instant gratification -- denied!

3 & 4 -- every time I check the price of digital cameras and electronics, it is more for less $$ (as mentioned). As one who purchased an 8088 -- well, the $$$ wasted was scary.


(Some new 19" LCDs are down to the price that 15" LCDs were about 18-month ago *and* the new LCDs are moving towards 1600x1200 [if you care]. I hope people don't own CRT manufacturer’s stock)
