At first i was thinking a steeda short shifter and 9mm sparkplug wires(i can buy the wires with money i get from other peeps for my b-day) but now i'm thinking FC adjustable cam sprockets. What do u guys think? I'm not finishing off my exhaust till spring so would it still be cool if i went ahead with cam sprockets? or should i wait till i finish my exhaust?

n/m guys just talked to my dad he goes "why not ask us for a header" so um ya i'm gunna ge ta JBA shorty header and with money i get from other peeps for my bday i should be able to get a highflow cat and flexpipe

id finish off my exhaust all at once. meaning buy the headers, high flow cat & flex pipe all at once so you can install it all at the same time. its gonna save you a lot of time & headaches[?|] unless youre taking it to a shop. then thats a different story.

cool man..my b-day passed so i gotta wait till xmas..can't wait..allready told my mom today that i wanted car parts..she like i know i know...so ill prolly ask for a FC 65mm t/b or sumtin else..maybe that and a udp..cuz by the time xmas comes ill have those other mods that r on my sig [:D]

well i'll get the header from my parents and with money i get from other family and stuff i'll be able to get the highflow cat problem is the flexpipe really. I'll have another job soon so i'll be with the stock flexpipe for a bit =\. Maybe if i get the Fc shorty header and also ask for the flexpipe i can get the highflow with my money and boom finished exhaust before the winter

yea flex pipe will be a breeze to get..cheapest part of the exhaust system

ya i know but ya maybe if i ask for the FC header instead of the JBA i could be like Fc header and flexpipe from my parents and then i buy my highflow cat

yea do that..then ull get 2 parts at once hehe

3 parts

well i ment from ur rents

Your should finish off your exhaust first. Then you can get it all said and done. What kinda high-flow cat you gonna get?

i'm just gunna get FC everything. FC street header, FC highflow cat and FC flexpipe

why not a race header....cheper than shorty + hiflow cat
doesIL have emission laws ?

ya i would get a race header but IL does have emission laws. Plus a car without a cat would be so freaking load i don't want to listen to that anymore then people riding next to me do

bah !
you can allways get a resonator...
is IL harder on emission than NY...
i remeber Ed saying a car with race header could pass emission in NJ or NY....
but i dont know...

do i want to take the chance? I dunno my parents will buy me the header and flexpipe and i'll buy the highflow cat. Plus if i get the race header i have to get 02 cheaters and i really don't save any money. How much more in gains do u get from a race header then from a street header with a highflow cat?

you will loose 1 or 2 hp...not much...
but the flow with the racing it much better....

i was gunna ask for a short shifter and some other little stupid things. My dad goes "what about a header i'm sick of waiting to finish off ur exhaust" so i'm like nice! ya my parents aer uying the header and flexpipe i'm buying the highflow cat. This summer i'm getting crowner stage 2 cams (my dad is dieing to put cams in my car) and fc cam gears. Anyway ya my dad was an enginman i nthe NAvy for 15 years and has worked on engines his whole life. So my dad is really into watching his son do shit like this. Ya wierd how my dad used to be a gear head well still is. Now he is the maganger of the world Allstate Network lol go figure.

nice man...
you are really lucky...
well i guess my kids will have the same luck as you...a dad that loves car !

Joel

ya i'm so happy that i'll have my exhaust finished off so soon. I wasn't planning to have this done till spring. Now that i'll have the exhaust out of the way i can move on to bigger and better things. Maybe i'll finally look at a exterior mod......or not lol[;)]
