Well, that's a tough one. Had you asked me a month ago, I would have just said my focus pump, 24 lb injectors and a tune. But now I am thinking about doing a blower. That being the case, I would need bigger injectors and a tune anyways so why throw money away. If I do go the blower route, looks like my Venom would be hitting the sales block - LOL

But, you never know. I do crazy things sometimes if I suddenly get in the mood. I have also had thoughts of selling and getting a Cobra.

So for now, I will probably get at least the pump installed.

Quite frankly, I really like my car and all the work I have done to it. There is really no other car like it and is soo different from stock: faster, looks better, sounds better, handles better. I can tell you if I do get a snake, the extra 10 large (the price differential between mine and a Cobra Vert) I am not sure if it is worth it in fun factor.

The only thing I really had planned is a car computer. Ill have mp3s, movies, navigation, voice recognition for everything, internet, and all the other goodies.

Ill be getting rid of my alpine cda-9855 as soon as I figure out what my winter beater is, and when my car goes away for the winter.

Lol thats why you move to Florida and never have to worry about that...you can drive it summer like ALL YEAR ROUND! ...

as far as mods... Venom and w01stang almost talked me into dishing out 90 bucks at Steeda this weekend for a short throw shifter, great deal, but i'm not guna be buying anything for my car anytime soon. I gotta worry about college, rent, and gas money...oh and yea a job...

"you would only gain like a heavy .1, MABYE .2 off your 1/4 time by switching to 4.10s. The cost would not be worth it. Id say get a sct xcal 2 and some nitrous. Nitrous is always good at car shows"

And a couple of other post you have made
