10k and only mid-high 13s. I would have a 11sec goal for 10k.

I say get some neon windshield washer lights, carbon fiber look altezzas, 40 spoke daytons with spinners, a body kit (the most gaudy you can find), bondo up your side moldings, tons of Mugen and RS akimoto stickers, chain link steering wheel and license plate cover. That should about cover it.

Re: (1strdko)
if i had 10k i would not blow it all on a turbo kit
take like 5k
around 2.5k custom kit
1.5k b16
1k pistons and rods
then make around 300whp
run 12's
then take that 5k extra put it into a good mutual fund and wait to see what happens with it by the time your 55.
have fun now, but even more in the future

Re: (ambition)
I'd rather have a POS parked in front of my house, than a Nice car parked out front of my apartment. It's kinda nice having a driveway to work on your broken *** car... But if your parents are cool and you live with them- be thankful and STAY THERE until you are are 40 years old!!!!!!!! Use your rent free time at home to SAVE up. Don't blow it like most of us do.
Sorry to go off topic, but these posts get me passionate. Now back to the car parts.
