Cant afford crap


Just wonderin wat some of you guys have for jobs. alot of you seem to have alot of money stuck in your cars. I have an 01 bullitt that i paid 16000 for with 42000k on it.. way to much i know! but i love the car. Well I broke a piston, from wat i can understand.. detonation, so its at the shop and im tryin to save money to upgrade other parts- rotating assembly, supercharger, heads, cams, tuner, etc. all of this stuff costs a crapload of money lol!!! i am a welder and i make 15.40 an hour.. roughly 1200 every 2 weeks.. its hard to pay for bills n still have money to stick in my car.. i have cold air intake, long tube headers, full exhaust, i believe thats it. but i am starting to think that there is more done to my car.. I drove a kenne bell supercharged 01 gt w/ tune .373 gears, and full bassani exhaust. Not to brag, cuz i hate braggin, but my car would kill it.. i noticed my fuel injectors are yellow/orange.. anybody know if you can tell wat size from the color? It also had iridium plugs in it. The guy i bought it from knew nothing about it. but he had three bullitts.. one in every color lol! his wife made him sell one cauz he bought an 03 cobra.. well im done rambling on so any help with anything would be great!!!

most of us are stupid and spent every dime we had on our cars like me. Now that i make 30/hr i haven't spent shit on my car lol. Your injectors are stock 19lb injectors. I don't think there is anything more done to your car if you have stock injectors and i doubt your car would kill the kenne bell car. And i would get rid of them plugs and just put some autolite 764's in it for the time being. Greatest and cheapest plugs for our cars being stock

you would know if you had cams, your car is not a freak and only makes with what you said on it about 250rwhp and that kenne bell car makes prob around 350rwhp. Even if you had cams your car would not be faster.

I would think if your car is not supercharged, turbocharged or had a big nos kit that the chance of beating a roush would be slim to none..but hey its not my car so i would not know.

damn, I only work in a plastics plant and make under $9 an hour, so I really cant afford shit, all the stuff in my 99 was on there when i bought it. as for the 01 i could afford a few things then when I had a good job, thats why I'm letting the 01 go, too damn expensive doesnt help that I have really bad credit and very high interest rate

a stage one roush is no more than a regular GT with a nice body kit.........and maybee some suspension crap i dunno, but no performance stuff.........i beat an 01 or 02 GT with a supercharger on it, (he said it was very conservativly tuned).........so i dont see why your car couldnt beat that KB GT.........anything is possible
