[QUOTE="low9sGT hahajk, post: 231116, member: 9893"] Wow, you guys are wayyy cooler about stuff than some of the other car boards I've been on. Some of the boards would've blown up and gotten pissed but you guys are straight forward. You all know the shortcomings of our cars, and at the same time embrace the good things without trying to act like they're some paranormally badass car and nothing else comes close. And I couldn't ask for a better response than suggesting setups that might put me where I'm wanting to be, rather than getting pissed. Anyway, just thought I would let you guys know that. On the performance part of things: I've thought about it and I was kinda comparing the newer cars to my 97 which probably isn't logical. One thing I've realize is that the car price + modifications, and where I'd be at performance-wise is actually a pretty damn good deal. When it comes down to it I could easily have a good boosted setup for under 10k counting car price...I'm not going to complain. O0 BTW part of the source of my pessimistic mood that day was from my buddy and his damn srt4...FWD 4 banger and its beating slightly modded 03 machs and stuff...I was a little annoyed at me being the underdog with my 8 cyl RWD against his 4 cyl FWD neon...WTF :o [/QUOTE]
