My build so far phase 1 of 5 Bang for the Buck

[Jackal]

I don't know where to start as I have done a pile of stuff to my car but the list of stuff I still have to do is a couple pages long so bear with me. I am gonna dump a basic list of what has been done and the costs associated with said work. I don't have enough time to post everything that has been done but will try and get it up over the next week or two. Enjoy!

AS you can see so far all my mods have been of the bolt on Variety. I will continue on with video and pics from my tune then onto Stereo upgrades. I found the Rockford Fosgate nav package along with the rain sensing wipers and sunroof did not justify an additional $ 7000.00 plus tax. So I got the stock CD AM/FM 6 speaker system and pretty much gutted it except I kept the stock deck until I can afford a new aftermarket double din unit in the new year. Stay tuned! Lots more to come.

Just a few pics of my car.

I see your going with the HKS BOV. I love the way that one sounds but I heard it negatively effects performance. Does the recirculation kit fix that?

[MTZL]

thats some budget on mods & mod list. Your RA looks great!

UR must love you. Can you record a sound clip. I'm thinking of doing what you did with exhaust but I don't want it too loud.

I love the Blue color. Wish I had it.
