Default 65 dollars to spend whheee

ok so i have 65 dollars on amazon and was wondering what should be the next purchase for my car. my car is a 2000 dx hatchback and is mostly stock. I was thinking either an alarm(and install it myself) or a new headunit. I wanted more performance upgrades but im saving up for a swap, so i dont know what to change. ok thnx

Ditto, My alarm ran me $530 w/ GPS. If you're buying an alarm for less than 200$, spend your money elsewhere

I'm under the impression that he only has the money to spend at amazon.com

get yourself a k&n filter, i think they sell those. there's not really much worth picking up at amazon, if i recall correctly.

Drop it into your stock air box(intake), chances are you will improve your gas mileage just a tad and not decrease your hp like you most likely would buying a SRI

With a massive budget like that... save up till you can buy something actually useful. Or buy a shop manual and start reading so that you'll be ready for when you actually buy something useful
