?? i think i know why you didnt add any horsepower.. you didnt add any horsepower upgrades.. LOL..
thats the point....its all maintanence and repairs
oo ok i got ya. delete your ac and smog pump with some uderdrive pulleys.. that is cheap and really frees up the horsepower
As long as you're being you, I can never feel bad about being me.
as i told you and i'll tell everyone else.
i have learned the hard way, you are better off spending more money for a better car in the first place instead of buying a bargain and fixing numerous problems plus replacing tons of parts. Because it always seems in the end you spend more money and time fixing/replacing stuff than what it would have cost to just buy the done nicer car
been there done that.
well some of us can only work with what ya got. i had a limit, used it, now use my alloted car fund each check to buy something.
Nothing wrong with working with what you got Jared. With what you added, you at least lowered your ETs a little and now have a better running car!
800.00, that's it,lol. I just bought 2 turbos that cost about 1000.00 each. Not to mention injectors, fuel upgrades, rearend, roll bar just to name a few. It only gets more expensive every time you get the urge to go faster

i agree...
owning a fox = $$$$$$$

Jared, don't feel bad. You don't have MY total spent on my car this year!!
In the end, you have a better car than when you started, and THAT is what you need to remember.
Also, I don't think I gained any HP either! but oh baby is she fun to drive again!
