RNR, dunno if you care to share what you did but how did he spend 15k on his power mods and have stock head botttom end and TB.

 

The only non power mod was an ACT clutch, AEM wideband, boost gauge. He already had a 3" catback.

 

Whoever said using student loan money for pleasure purposes is fradulent is 100% correct. I wouldnt do that.

 

come to vegas....bet it all on red, double it, pay off your loan then have fun...Or loose it all and you'll have a memory that will last a life time :-)

 

using a loan for car modding. If the bank or watever comes to kno wat ur doin. Bro ur gonna get it. Trust me, these banks are not stupid or watever. Don't do dumb stuff like that.

 

Best answer i have heard, Ever! I say spend 12,000 on the Evo. 3,000 whoring in Asia

 

I've got $3000... If he wont go I will!!!!!!!!!!

 

ok so i talked to the rents about it and told them how everyone doesnt think its a good idea, theyre gonna "loan"(give) me the cash for getting the scholar ship....so back on track, thanks for he heads up guys....any ideas?

 

Ok, then, let's start over. Congratulations on doing so well in HS that you received a full ride. That's awesome and you are to be commended. I also think it's great that your parents realize this and decided to reward you with a large amount of cash.

Now, I don't think they should just hand you that much cash for you to blow on a car, especially being a teenager who is just about to head to college. Since I don't have the opportunity to suggest they put it in some sort of interest-bearing account, I'll have to try and convince you.

What I would suggest is to only spend about $3k on the car to get the following:

- MBC w/gauge
- Cams (your choice of 264/272/280) w/cam gears
- LICP
- Panel Filter
- Custom flash
- Alky injection (if you are responsible enough to keep the tank filled)

With all of this, you will have a street monster that is still reliable with around 360whp (way more than I have on my 12.1s Evo).

Take the rest of the money and learn how to invest it safely. I'm not saying to throw all of it into stocks or mutual funds, but find at least a money market fund where you can get some interest (~4%) yet still have the money liquid, meaning you can get to it if you need to. This would allow you to have plenty of money set aside for things you want or for maintenance (like a new clutch+installation).

Just my advice...

 

1) Drop motor off at AMS
2) Drop $15000 check off at AMS
3) Wait 2 weeks
4) Pick up 600hp motor from AMS
5) Yee Haw

 

Yee haw thats the greatest idea i have ever heard...
I would def. lookin to that stroker kit at bushurs

 

Wow, it's just like getting an oil change. Except when the car somes out, it'll have more horsepower! That's pimpin'

 

sell your evo and buy a lotus elise with the money

 

Do you have any racing experience? Any experience with powerful cars? My guess is no. I'll be man enough and honest to say i don't think i'd be able to handle a 600+ whp car. The most powerful car I've driven was a 400 rwhp 2,000 lb miata and lets just say if it was my car i'd be dead right now.

I'm sure you'll be happy with a 350-370 whp car so if anything spend around 4k and save the rest.

 

wow i mean wow im just going to keep reading in the back round just to see what happens
