ha - you can do that stock. I like picking on Vette, Vipers, 911s, and the like. (BUT do take it to the track - our insurance is high enough, and people die doing that stuff)
But good luck - check out South Coast Mitsu for some great prices.

Well in my area, its hard to avoid, ricers everywhere, the red-light runs around here I wouldn't really call racing.
But even driving my friends Supra, we get Honda's with the required 40 pounds of vinyl giving him the "Fly-By". Than you just take them to 80 and laugh as they limp home

well when you decide to mod, going with a vendors stage package you will get parts that have been proven to work together to net a specific gain, if you decide to piece it to gether piece by piece you could end up spending alot more money for the same gains with a stage package. And not all mods like to work together in harmony. I went with the piece by piece idea and probably spent alot more to get the gains i have in the end.

I've beel looking at the Warrtalon/Buschur stage 1, seems to come with everything I could want, all matched, and 330WHP should be more than enough to keep me occupied for a long time.
And the upgrades beyond that are all really reasonably priced.
I looked at the HPF stage 1, and it seemed kind of...weird, as well as a little expesive for what you get.

I'm trying to find a shop around here I would trust for the install, or maybe I should drive to OH and have Buschur do it there :P

If you are changing 100 percent synthetic oil like AMSOIL at 3-5k miles you are
WEE WEEING your money away!
