RE: OK Lets say you have $1200...
LOL i dont know ANYONE that is into cars and modding them. There are a couple of rice burners at my school, with there damn civics and huge *** fart cans. The only thing i can think of is if i give my car to our schools auto shop and have them work on it. But just reading that sentence again makes me cringe: High school students working on my car, no thanks.

LOL It would cost a LOT more than $1200 for me to come there. LOL Not to mention I HATE COLD WEATHER!!! LOL When I got my exhaust done it ran me like $1300 for labor and parts. I just looked at the reciept. Im POSITIVE you can get it done cheaper because I got ripped and didnt even know it. LOL Just look around. LT headers are a must! LOL

best thing to do, is give it to me, then that'll give me enough money to buy a super charger. then we could swap it out and share. i get it for the first 5 years, then you get it the next 5 years.

RE: OK Lets say you have $1200...
lol come on, u know u wanna visit the lovely city of detroit! actually its a rather boring city, but had to ask.
anyways i was supposed to be lookin today for shops and estimates. then i got the idea to screw the LTs and midpipe and go with just the catback + gears + some other minor things. then i heard the just the packs on stock H and such.....ouch it was bad [:'(]. so looks like i'm back to the drawing board AGAIN. if there was a catback that sounded nice and deep with the factory H for the same price as the packs, then i would be all over it. I would then get the gears + somethin else u guys suggest. But as of now, i'm still in the thinking mode

I used Prewitt Racing in Austin and that guy sucks a fat ****!!! He ripped me good. I trusted the guy to do the work and bill me. I got to looking at the reciept and he charged me $80.00 for putting on the under drive pulleys which tool all of ten minutes THEN he charger me another $100 for the install of the timing adjuster which I could have done my self... again in another 15 minutes. I was pissed and he wouldnt refund any of my money.

The Cams and the install is gonna cost you between $800-$900 alone or pretty close. I would stick to exhaist and gears if I were you.
