I'll play.

4.10 gears = $600
CAI+SCT = $500
1 piece DS = $500
suspension = $600
BSM 10" stripes = $120
hurst STS = $180

Man have I wasted some coin on this car. I think i'm done though, i would like to retire some day.

I forgot my axle backs, shift light and relocation brackets.

I forgot my DR and 17x9 rims = $550

I would have replaced $500 worth of your mods with a CAI and tuner. It really does make that much difference.

If iam going to buy a s/c within the year the CAI is going to be useless. Id rather get a package with the tuner from brenspeed than waste 500 now.

Just sell the CAI and keep the tuner, brent will take it off the price. Atleast you don't know what you're missing.

BBK CAI- $230
SLP LM-$330
Ninosport Pipes- $200
Blackout panel- $50
Duplicolor caliper paint and accesories-$30
Scott Drake fuse box cover/4.0 Badge-$50


Just ordered-

AVS Tail Light covers- $60
Foose Stallion Stripes- $80
GT Rocker Panels- $80

wasted money-

Flowmaster American Thunder muffler- $200

all together- $ 1,310

I think Id rather have all these mods than a supercharger right now. I have about 1grand to play with every two weeks, and perhaps by jan. I'll start saving for a paxton S/C w/ polished after cooler, 3.73 gears, T-Lok, Shelby handling package, and Shelby Razor wheels.
