$1,295.55 over a few months, I'm a nerd lol I have a spread sheet. I have a lot more on it to buy, just in time. If they give discounts like Brenspeed on paying cash and having a tuner already I will buy the blower. Then again, Can I use the forum discount on a 6K purchse??

The forums discount code will work on anything that isn't a gift card or already discounted with a code(that doesn't mean that you can't use it on sale items, just that if an item is discounted with a code, you can't add the forum code on top of it)
And there is nothing wrong with being organized with spreadsheets! I spend 10+hours a day in excel on spreadsheets!

I wish I had kept that careful a records of all that I spent on my 06 GT. Learned from my mistake and make a spreadsheet to keep track of cost of my 2004 Mustang mods. But I'm probably close to 15k into the 06 GT and only 2k so far into the 04...

Personally, I've never been a fan of the spreadsheet or similar methods to keep a tab on costs of modding my vehicles.
It helps if you ever want to go to sell anything, but to me it's like having a big sign telling you what you don't want to know. That being how truly addicted you are to modding and what you've actually spent! lol
When I see what I paid modding my previous cars and building my father's car, I tell myself I could have bought a Ford GT and then I cry a little inside
That's why my current car is an SCCA stock-class and fully-warrantied car. All I do is race it, drive it and let the dealer fix it if there's any issues!
(ugh, I'm getting old
)

Ha, I think I'm reaching that age as well soon enough. I've always purchased older cars out right thus no warranty. I don't mind knowing how much I spend as I'm fully aware just how retarded expensive a hobby this can be but at the same time, nothing else comes close to hammering the throttle from 5th to 3rd on the freeway, chirping the tires and pinning you in the seat for a few seconds. :-)

You definitely can!
