Everytime I think I'm done.....

Months ago I figured I have 3 or 4 more mods to take care of on my car to be exactly where I want it to be, than I would be happy. Every night after I leave the site there is another mod to add to the list. I am up to about 7 or 8 mods now. When will the mods and the spending money end...... CURSE YOU PEOPLE!!!! j/k

Still want to do get,

comptech sways & strut bar, rims, finish the custom exhaust, headrest tv's, sunglass switch compartment, valentine one

The last couple of days,

type s mani & TB, (poss. bore) depends on the dyno numbers we get from the florida thread, and I am even thinking of a s/c. I am sure there are more I just cant remember right now, all in all alot more $$$ cha CHING!!!

WOW thats quite the list. Good job and keep it up! I would highly recomend you get the UR crank Pulley. If you liked the gains from the headers, you will wonder how you ever lived without the pulley!

Actually, I had forgotten that one, thanks, I am interested in getting the pulley as well. Now it is only a matter of putting them in order as to what is first, second etc...

i gotta stay away from here.. but also posting and seeing whats going on here is also addicting. every single time i come here i see someone with a new mod and i end up wanting it. i wanted to just save up my money, but i always end up spending my paycheck on my car. but when i do something to my car, i feel really good about finally getting it done.
