I was talking with a friend yesterday (STI owner) and we were trying to figure out how much we spent on our cars. Id like to know how much everyone here has spent in mods.... I've spent $13,050

$$$ spent ?

 

mods, delete the other thread

 

how do you delete one of them?

 

How did you manage to spend that much with the mods in your sig?

I've had my car for a month and I've spent about 200 so far: Hallman MBC, Defi D series boost guage and guage pod.

 

DVD Nav system, $2,200
Cams,exhaust,MBC,Fuel pump, BOV + labor $2,800
New Wheels/Tires $1,900
Just Got Ohlins/install/allignment $4,000
Carbon fiber parts $500
Sparco Harness bar/harnesses $800
pluse some other stuff

 

Hey King,

What dyno did you dyno on? Just wondering becuase I have the XEDE, 272/272, Vushnu TBE, and cam gears and I put down 336whp/300tq on a Mustang.

 

I ran on a Dyno jet at turbo trix.... "Xede is not there specialty" is what they said to me.... some people think i should have cam gears + a Vishnu tune to get 330+. I'm getting sick of spending money at this point (you can see by my post)

 

so far ive spent about $400.00 (bov & tt)

 

On my last car I spent around 10k...looking back I think WTF was I doing...that's why I bought an Evo...buy a fast car to begin with so I don't have to pour money into making it fast. I don't forsee myself spending more than 4k total on this car as far as mods go.

 

Close to 4k. But plan on spending more

 

I'm probably right at the 2K mark, but I'm planning on about 6K...maybe 7...unless I end up really wanting a IX when I see it in person...then I get to start over again...

 

Dont get a new EVO!!! there really is not point if you are into performance. Any evo with performance mods will beat a stock IX or MR no contest. I would say 1-2 grand in performance mods will offset any performance dif from one evo to the next stock for stock. 1.Exhaust 2. rear swaybar 3. Dyno flash = faster than any stock evo easy. I almoast died when i read the sport compact car magazine article that said the new IX get like 7 whp and 3ftlbs more... they thought that was great lol

 

Don't know exactly, but more than $15,000.00 for sure. Best I don't know. Most likely make me start crying. Oh well, I've always said I want to spend my last $.02 just before they put me in my grave.

 

i voted 1-2k for now. more is coming, but i am trying to work in stages.... if that makes sense. first was wheels, tires, springs, trunck bar, a few other goodies. next comes the TB exhaust, utek, manifold, intake?, fuel pump, ect. this car sould easily become a huge money pit, and i trying to be careful. i am not going to put 20k into it though.

 

just totaling basically everything I bought, it's over 30k, was it worth it? We'll see!
