how much $$ you plan on spending for your Evo?

For me I plan on spending about 5-7k worth of mods and that also includes stereo, rims and tires. You can spend **** loads of money on it and there will always be a car faster than yours, well thats the way I look at it. With a couple grand of mods I think I should pretty much satisfied I dont want to think back one day and say to myself that I regret spending ridiculus amount of money on my car. But I guess its not that easy to stay away from mods.

How long have you had your system in your car? How is the car holding up to the bass and is the interior rattling?

Talking

I dont have an evo yet and I drive an 00 S4. I spent about 8k on it already and trying to control myself from buying more. I wish I had an evo then cuz if I would of put 8K on the evo I probably have a 11sec car already. Turbo cars are very addicting to mod because of all the endless posibilities and variety of gizmo you can get for it.
