IMO, I would just keep it. Maybe tone down the "modified" look. It looks to be only lowered by 1" or so., nothing really noticeable. I think the black rims make it look "race." If the interior looks more like a cockpit, tone it down a bit. If it's paid for, Drive it and maintain it. You have a dependable and fun car.
Anything else you get you know you will personalize it. To make it uniquely yours.

the cons are a possible loss in the reliability of my car. some circumstances have changed with my family, and my parents are asking me to pay for the maintanence on the car, im not sure i can afford to keep up the turbo. i dont really know whats involved with keeping it in great shape. if i had known that my parents would have decided this, i would not have gone all out with the turbo. if anything, im contemplating selling the turbo kit and many of my mods, and going back to stock. or if im confident the turbo will be relatively maintenance free for the next 1-2 years ill keep it and drive it.

I dont think the maintenance would be too bad since it is a proven motor. oil changes are a must every 2500 miles and then just keep an eye on temps and af ratios and you should be fine. Your running low boost with management. If the tune is good, you should have no problems at all. There are tc's that are running 6-7 psi with no management on a stock non-flashed ecu. Youll be fine.
