Outceltj you need to get in lupo222's thread about cams and saleen blowers. He's having issues and you prolly can help.
I don't like to add up the costs but I'm at least at $10k in mods. Car cost me $15k so in the end I have a pretty fast car that looks and sounds awesome for around $25k. I'm happy and like timmbo, no kids, so its all about me. Lol

I think women are sitting on a goldmine. They have something that every man wants.

That's quite an investment, OP! Sounds like you're happy with what ya got. Hobbies are fun, but can sure be expensive! For me, it's between my car and investing in a new rifle. I happen to find myself living in the moment as well haha

I believe he has longtubes as part of his exhaust and I believe they are thinking its blowing his boost right out of his exhaust. It sounds like he's done a leak test so I guess give the pully a try which I believe he's doing. Hopefully he will get it worked out.

Yea im like you I dont really want to know what I had but my curiosity got the best of me. I just a bit north of 15k for mods and the car was 25k. Probably a bit much but I enjoy it and like timmbo said you only live once so what the hell right

Sadly when I first got the car I started a word document of all mods and cost I have not added it up yet but it's probably right around 13k to 14k I bought the car used with 8k miles bone stock from a lady that didn't have time to drive it. Best thing I have ever done makes me happy every time I drive it even if it puts a hurting on my bank account.
