hey do u notice the Plasma booster at all? Because im running 7 pounds w\ Jims heads, and all the other possible upgrades.. and I am looking for an upgrade for my Ignition system... Im looking into the MSD ignitions.. Im running the 7 pounds, w\ the heads, Jpp headers, y-pipe, and 3 in exhaust, Supra Injectors, total seal piston rings, tranny cooler, and the S-afc II... Im running w\ an auto as of now, but onec I get the tranny upgrade soon, ill be running pretty damn fast... also I have the injen intake, rear sway bar and stuff. but thats obivious, there hte cheapest to have done... oh yeah, ignition wires, and IK-22 plugs, w\ the S\c Of course...
and if we are going of cost, I have a $7000 system in my car that thumps all to he$l (includes: custom box, subs, 1700 amp, cap, alpine deck, dynomat so it doesn't rattle like crap, setup for an extra batter, including the Isolator and extra batter, and I have switched from a $375 alarm, to the best my city has to offer, which was 675)... and tint, clear corners, rader jammer, seperate set of snow tires, scan tool adapter to hook my laptop up to the OBD II port... I can't even remember how much crap I have put into my car.. lets just say, my car is quite a bit more expensive than a brand new one would be, even thought I have wear on it.. .later
Scott

p.s. does this enclude all the synthetic oil, and synthetic tranny fluid also? This could go on and on.. I love my car, and if I have any extra money, its going to my car

Also, those O.Z. Anteras Rims were the ones that I had on my list of things for my car, but the money for those, went to my system.... Nice choice
later

oh yeah, I forgot I have a greddy catback system, chillin in my garage, because the JPP is 100 times better, and my auto meter dual gauge pod w\ boost and oil pressure gauges

I think im in love w\ my car... is this a problem?
haha later
Scott

My total was maybe 1500, with the majority being my wheels.
JTAMAS333, Please dont hate on me, my parents don't have as much money as you. That's why I didn't spend as much as you did. By the way, I drove my friend's Dodge Colt the other day, and the Solara handles better than that. PS - His parents didn't have the money to buy him a Porsche.
