EDIT: forgot to add Hahn racecraft full exhaust

 

Jesus Christ man...talk about splurging, lol. I wish I got that kind of bonus. Have fun!.....bastard, lol.

 

Holy ****.

 

Holy ****!

That's a loooooooot of fun stuff.

Though, I think you're missing out on some of the fun of modifying.

What was the final cost?

Cometic head gasket
ARP head studs

Did you order pistons too?

 

holy crap batman! thats a huge splurging list,don not know what to say,but "happy modding"

 

"REAL carbon fiber interior trim kit"
what is this? link?

 

Good lord...

Wow man. Nice list!

 

Just WOW...I'd love to just get those Konig Hot Swaps you talking about. I want the black ones with red inserts but have yet to find them.

 

Good God... lmao... Nice list.

 

FYI dude, I read your post, your going from your stock injectors, to your 60#ers without a tune?

You might run rich...which is a no no.

 

about $4800

no, no pistons.. not yet needed. if you looks theres really not that many engine mods. im looking mainly to be a show stopper

its overlay but real... biohazard has the kit already if u look at his pics

im getting black with carbon fiber inserts. go to discounttiredirect.com it says coming soon but if you have a discount tire store nearby go to the actual store. they will tell you that they are available now. i was quoted about 1800 for black with carbon fiber inserts along with my nitto invos

i know, first off im not stock right now i have 42.5lb ers. and second off they arent even going near my car until i can get a day where i can put them in and tune that day right after they go in...

 

Why Be A Show Stopper When You Be A Beast At The Track, Id Glue A Deer Head To My Car And Smash The Hood In If I Could Get Into The 12's Hahaha But Good For You Hope It All Comes Together W/out A Problem.

 

holy crap... you are going to have a bad ass car... i hope you are installing most of this stuff because thats the fun part.

 

HOLY CRAP!!! I would have done it too if i had the money lol

 

of course! ive done everything myself so far except for the things i couldnt do like swapping out the wheels cause i dont have the tools to take a tires off wheels... and of course the pcm flash. im pretty lucky cause theres an auto shop on base and all you have to do is take a 20 minute safety class then you can use it all you want. its got every tool imaginable, a lift, and all sorts of fun stuff.

 

^^^ thats awesome... looks like your going to be busy for a while then

 

If your doing the show thing, why would you buy traction bars?

 

Might want to swap out the BM shifter for the Hurst...just a thought

 

because i want the best of both worlds. i still go to the track pretty often.. at least twice a month

 

Ahh cool. Good list my friend, have fun!

 

ive heard people say that before, any reason?

 

But you wont put pistons in even thought you already plan on having the head off (and possibly the engine out to do the clutch and flywheel)...... that makes sense

 

tell me why id need them.. you really think ill be pushing that much to need pistons? i highly doubt it. thats like saying, well while i have the head off i might as well just sleeve it too, no actually ****.. why not buy the whole new stage head from JBP.. its only $3000. "that makes sense" sorry to tell you but the military doesnt pay well, and my bonus will eventually be spent... it isnt endless. so i think id rather keep the last of my money in case something happens which often times does when working with aftermarket parts. so keep your sarcasm

 

Yes, with a 2.6 pulley, and knowing that I already had the engine out of the car (and considering the change you already spent), I would put a set of pistons in. But its not my car, nor is it my engine. But I know I'd be pissed when i had to pull that engine back out to rebuild it cause it melted down a piston

 

well, thanks for the advice. it will definitely come down to what i have left.
