what should i do
well ive been considering the cobra r 2000 hood and the roush stage 3 front bumper since i bought my car in march. now ive been thinkn about saving my money up till next xmas or maybe a little bit after and being able to afford twin turbos. what do u guys think?

infact since you are in highschool, ill tell you that your plans will fall through. I havent made any plans for my car because they never go through. I just go along as I please... my current plan is to not spend any money on the car untill after xmas and it didnt work.
#4
haha i kno it always falls through, but i can have hte hood and bumper really soon if i want. i have enough for hood and bumper, and need to make a little more for paint. can get it painted and installed for 600.
#5
definately save for the turbos' you would enjoy those much more then a hood or bumper. I know i wish i could put all my looks money into something that would make me go fast like a supercharger or something.

i say just wait untill after christmas and buy a supercharger kit thats used from someone. there will be a bunch soon after the mph turbo kit comes out.

why wouldnt he want that much power---isnt modding thse cars all about getting more power??? we dont need our cars to be as loud as we make them we WANT them to be that loud--we dont need them to have our own choice wheels we WANT those wheels everything we do to our cars besides normal maintenance is because we WANNNTTTT it not becuase we need it

I'd say the best thing to do, is both. Instead of TT go with a mongoose kit and get your hood and bumper. That way you will still have a 400+ rwhp car, and the looks to go with it.
Over 500+ rwhp isn't really streetable anyway. It is drivable, but not enough roads without cops to realistically use the power..

Yeah, you would want to upgrade your rearend, not definatly needed but won't hurt. Get some Strange 31 splines from MPH for only $245.

Be realistic, you will have to upgrade the internals from your block if you want to get that power. Get the mongoose kit and body work when you have money rebuilt the motor then get the SC or T. Like mentioned above 500rwhp is the max for a street car after that you have to replace so many things that it becomes a race car and not as fun to drive. Hp cost money, how much are you willing to spend is how fast you are going to go. I rather have a 400hp with a working motor then a 500-600 hp car with a blown motor.

yea i decided im gunna do the hood and bumper first. then im gunna save up and if i ever reach the amount i need for the s/c then im gunna seriously consider it..... or i could just keep the money and not do a s/c. well see
