Default What to do? Bolt-Ons or Save for FI?

Which would you guys recommend? Buying a few bolt-ons or go for the throat and get forced induction?

you must drive like you have miss daisy in the car then If you dont have problems with traction and your F/I, my rear is all over the road only with bolt ons and I know others with alot of suspension mods who are just as bad as me with there bolt ons. people all over this forum complain about having no traction with F/I .............

Buy bolt ons for now since you said something like 2 yrs untill you can get f/i. I would have soldmy car if i had to drive it around stock for 2 yrs......
