Default Re: Air intake help...

If I was kind of broke I'd cut the airdamn out of the airbox in the car and instal K&Ns when I needed a new air filter. I'd buy a diesel pickup tailpipe and a muffler, then build my own exhuast, toss the cats and use a side exit to save a couple thou. I'd save all my money and buy a good used Roe blower system and instal that ($5,000). I'd get the most 'bang for the buck spending what a complete exhaust would cost. 150-200rwhp with the potential to upgrade a pulley and add a water/meth sytem for another hundred or so hp. A new set of wheels would cost more than that. Money could dictate stereo, big brakes, wheels, speakers, headers, tailpipes, etc. after that - but what I did was spend an extra $5,000 when I bought my car with nearly everything I wanted already on it. The 'little things' I've done since buying it have already cost me nearly $10,000 extra and a ton of work (I'm a do it yourselfer). Nearly finished now.
