I will dig up some pictures of before...I'll have to take a few more after shots this weekend...there isn't much done...in the sig is most of it...car has been at the body shop all week as I was hit while it was parked. Good thing the other person was honest and let me know...her insurance is covering everything...nothing out of my pocket.

Anyway, as listed in my sig, I've got an MTX X Thunderlink sub, I've debadged the rear, 35% tint all around, Eibach Sportlines installed, painted front bowtie black (will redo), installed an MP3 factory CD player, center armrest console, K&N Drop-in.

I'm going to do more suspension work and I'm trying to find wheels that I like for next summer. Right now it's on stock steelies...have another set of aftermarket steelies with winter tires.

I'm going to do a few things today after work, then I'll take some pictures and post them up.

Wage wise...I'm making almost $45k a year and I can't do much to my car...but my circumstances are different...married, 1 kid, 1 dog, house payment is $14xx, wife's car is an 07 Impala 3LT so we've got ~$2100 in just house and cars every month.

i mod because it moves me. i don't do it to be in some sort of competition to out-do the next 2.2 owner. that's just ridiculous.

Haven't seen anyone else with a ported lsj manifold. Ever thought about going with performance headers or do you like the gains with the stock ported one?

Ever been to the track? I'd definitely like to see some runs with those mods.
