Yeah, so I got $100 as a gift from one of my buddy for my birthday, and he made it specific that I have to use it toward my car....any advise?

To start
I have rim, tints, shortshifter, muffler, and Dgm lip.

This mod has to be easy because the $100 includes installation. (If I can't do it myself)

I was thinking about Injen intake so maybe I can find a used one somewhere here!

Oh, and $100 is what I can spend for this mod, not a penny extra!

i want something that go toward performance though....

you're not going to get much out of $100 for performance. save it for something bigger.
 
You said you had a shortshifter. Do you have Kartboy shifter bushings? If not, what the hell are you waiting for? You can get them and still have $70 left over.
 
performace + 100$ = not likely

or, sri with k&n off ebay - but i don't consider sucking hot air from around the engine a performance gain
 
An intake is just a noise maker, thegains are practicly unmeasurable. Just buy a kazoo and pocket the other $98.01.

For something 1/2 way useful, add a protable XM radio with a car kit.
They have a $50 rebate right now on them and install is easily done if you use the wireless FM mod.

Cheap, easy, portable car to car.
 
i would sell u my wagner shorty for $100, but i have to get its welds repaired first...
 
Get a RacingBeat rear-sway bar... the difference is night and day..

The ebay SRI with a K&N got me a whopping 3 whp on the dyno in triple digit temps.

Mental Addiction Motorsports dyno

95 WHP on a bone stock P5
98 WHP with my ebay SRI & K&N filter

Get a Boost Gauge and a MBC will get you under 100, with easy install (thumb)
does a turbo kit come with that boost guage?

how bad is the damage Albert? I am interested. I know a couple welders so maybe we can just work something out. Would you consider a trade just in case you want a stock header?
