What year is your car, what kinda power are you looking for, and what is your budget?

WLJohnson05 · March 27th, 2007, 09:07 PM

hoss not to be an asshole or anything, but check around the forum, this question gets asked like everyday

GreenFaleen · March 27th, 2007, 09:09 PM

Umm
exhaust-375 (custom job at muffler shop)
and
CAI-30-50 (ebay)

and your pretty much done with stuff for under 500.

Clayhistorian · March 27th, 2007, 10:39 PM

ya but for an extra 500 or so gears maybe? do you have t-lok?

GreenFaleen · March 27th, 2007, 10:43 PM

you can get gears and t-lok for 600 as a max estimate.

Texan_Stud · March 27th, 2007, 10:59 PM

buy rims.. lol seriously if your only gonna spend 500 bucks dont blow it on perf.. cuz uhm yeah about that haha.. why not get a sound system or something that makes your car more comfortable for you or makes it look better

GreenFaleen · March 27th, 2007, 11:54 PM

Because 2200 dollar sound systems get stolen a week after you spend 6 hours installing it and your dash get ripped apart and then you wait 3 months and insurance still doesn't get your dash fixed, and when you finally do you get a refurbished unit that is in terrible condition so you raise hell till they get you a new one but it takes them forever to get one in so your stuck without music or A/c vents or a dash. That is why you should not get a sound system
The End

wow...the anger falcon...think happy thoughts

Clayhistorian · March 28th, 2007, 09:44 AM

hrm has faleen been through something like that before? so much anger

GreenFaleen · March 28th, 2007, 09:47 AM

Yeah I am still going through it my dash is in pieces.

But exhaust and CAI are both good visual and perf. mod so thats why most people do it first. And the only other visual mod you can get for 500 bucks is maybe tint and some bullet interior stuff.

WLJohnson05 · March 28th, 2007, 11:15 PM

i so feel like a dumbass right now....i just realized that ur thing is greenfaleen and not falcon hahaha dag....my bad

Onemanzu · March 28th, 2007, 11:19 PM
