If you're talking about next season...I'd save up and slowly build it to where you want it. Can't always expect everything now now now, I learned that the hard way more than once. Anyhow, I think that if you were to run the stock class you would get bored eventually, maybe not right away but pretty quickly to be honest.

i would have to ditch my intake but i can use a K&N Drop in filter. i can use OEM Springs (no aftermarket) ANY shocks. a front sway bar. any brake pads (stock rotors) factory sized wheels. just about any tire (including R compound). and a cat back exhaust.

yea. and its much cheaper then getting a $2000+ set of coilovers then another $500 in sway bars. then whok nows how much to get it all aligned and set up correctly. and ill still be underpowered compared to alot of the cars in my class.

You guys hear about that huge fire in Conshohocken? It happened about 200 yards from where I work. I actually biked past it this morning and drove past it to work around 1pm. The fire I think started at 4:30 after I had been at work for 2 hours.

Here are the deets.. It was impressive

Ah.

I think your HID's are appearing blue because they're not warmed up yet in those shots, Rob.

Rob, your box is looking SWEET. Loves it! The blue tint to your lights could also be due to in camera settings like WB (White balance) or the photo needs some color correction in an image editing app like Photoshop.
