Default what should i do??

i am confused with life right now. well not really just with my car. you see i have an extra 400 bucks to mess around with. i am saving up for a GT right now that i will most likely purchase im december, but i am going to keep the sixer still(probably am giving it to my mom, but itll still be around so it counts as me still keeping it). not worth too much if i sell it with 154K miles on it so might as well just keep it. but i want to do like one more mod before i get the GT. which one can i afford with 3-400 bucks? i really want 4.10s but that may be out the question for me. i dont have duals yet so maybe flowmaster 40's with an x-pipe? or should i just save the cash for mods on a GT?

thanks.

I'd save it for the gt. But if you want to do one more mod do the exhaust with the x-pipe.

I vote that you just save it towards either a little bit nicer GT or towards a first mod on the GT.

no point wasting $400 on a new exhaust unless ur mom likes a loud exhaust.[8D]

with gears you need a crap-lok, err t-lok as well, plus install, and the tuner,

i vote, just GT take offs with force mufflers from summit, thats around $300, and will sound good, and cheap

well thing is, ill be driving the sixer around too still. its a good car, and theres nothing wrong with it. but i already have the air intake but then i just never had the extra money to mod this one out before the mileage got too high.

Ditto. damn dude we agree on too much stuff now. i am really starting to like you

as for mods either exhaust or go on EBAY and get 3.73's and a used T-lok. it will help you mom in winter months with snow if you in such a climate. if not get the GT takeoffs and Force mufflers

Save for the GT, no point on wasting anymore money on a car you're not going to keep.

Well that's debatable, but it's still not going to be "HIS" car and like I said, it's pointless spending anymore money on a car "HE'S" not going to be driving anymore. I can bet 10 million dollars that his mom doesn't give a rats *** about performance, so the car as is should be more than fine.
