If a kit was as cheap as piecing together an M62 kit, maybe. But right now I have bolt-ons, cams, and a tune. Hoping to have an M62 on by the end of the year.

I can only afford intake and exhaust any time in the near future... When money is a little less tight I may consider going TC.

I'm doing the basic bolt ons now. Then probably when the warranty is up ill turbo it. unless someone wants to just give me 2 grand haha. Being a college student, a turbo build isn't in the budget

First off, I know I am bring back a VERY dead thread. I just thought it was funny to see this thread that I posted in a year and a half ago.

Well the update to mine is that I went with SS/TC struts/shocks and Pedders. I just finally got a SS/SC FE5 front sway...have to get it installed.

My suspension will pretty much be done then because I upgraded to FE5 control arms, sway bar, Moog end links, FE5 struts and shocks. I have the rear OTTP street bar which I think I had when I originally posted (can't remember).

I have the 2.2 Pacesetter header with the Exhaust Depot catless DP currently installed with the LSJ cat-back, but I have in my possession the Bad-Mab header, a ZZP 2.5" catted DP that will be going on in the next week or so with a new rear o2 sensor since mine is shot.

Everything else in my sig is correct for now.

I still plan to go ZZP SC next year some time. The only other option I have is finding a better job and buying something else to play with. Which would be something RWD or AWD (thinking A4 or RX8 most likely)...but I'd be more likely to SC the daily driver and fix up my 96 Grand Am GT 2.4 5spd as a backup.

Bolt-ons, maybe a cam. Also hope some drunk guy totals the car while it's parked so I can get an SS.
