A catback is $450 minimum. Tint is around $200. Well here it is. HID's are around $200 also. Stage 2 is $550 plus install. Install usually runs around $300. If you add them up its the same. Don't worry when you start modding you wont stop until your done or your pockets are empty.

Well.. 4300k is TRUE WHITE.. (this will give you the brightest light)

5000k (what i have) is the slightest bit blue.. (second brightest)






6000k is even more blue...


8000k IS blue..

12000k is purple.

Well I'm gonna be getting between $1800-$2200 when I sell my old car.. And i'm thinking I am going to put it all into the balt mod-wise.

I just ordered four new tires, and I'm gonna be ordering 6000k bi-xenon hid's next week.

I'm thinking when I get the money for my old car I'm gonna get...

GMPP Sport cat-back
GM Stage 2
Lowered on Tenzos'
Tint all around
Do the airbox mod
and possibly get my stock rims professionally painted..
Paint my calipers and headlight housing..

How do you think that looks for now?

That's a nice list of mods. That's almost exactly what I've got done to mine except I have the manifold.

Ya I think its a pretty good start for a mod list while i'm still under warrenty. How big of a difference can u notice with the 2.9 pulley? and is it hard to swap them when I need to bring the car in for service?

Oh man try telling people with those blue lights they arent as bright as white light sometime! Ive gotten in some pretty heated arguments with some guys over that subject, but I guess they never took science class in school.
