ya i cant wait for the 600 dollars from the gov and my tax refund check!!!!! : ) can you say half for the tires and eighther a short throw or hi flow cat lol or even something new to the suspention or even the mustang HMMM the possibility's LOL
 
I am going to use half for Focus Fest. I want to use the rest for classes or car parts, but I know that I should save it so I'm going to lol. It's to stimulate the economy and help lol!
 
ya i cant wait for the 600 dollars from the gov and my tax refund check!!!!! : )
does any one have an idea of how much we are supposed to get? i've heard from 200-800 and no one really seems to know..... regardless[woot]
 
whats with this gov check everyone is talking about??? someone needs to explain this, i heard everyone is getting 600 bucks?
ya president Bush has issued a 145 billion tax thing since we are all in bad shape or something like that. so couples will get like 1600 or something and singles will get something around 400-800 in the mail from the Gov. thats all i know about it.
 
i looked online, and if you make under 75k or 150k jointly, youll get 600 or 1200 for 2 and 300 per kid you own, so the bunner families up here are lookin at getting 3000+ plus the 1200 lol so 4200 for them lol

and its gonna be issued sometime in the summer, hopefully prior to focusfest so i can just bank it and use that for the trip!
 
lol yea 2500. Its a laptop so right there its a lot more expensive. Plus its 4 gb of ram, the new nvidia 8800 gtx vid card, 17" screen, 160 gb 7200 rpm hd. And the great news, itll be worthless in less than a year :(.
I figured to get the best i can right now instead of buying out of date stuff now just to have it be worthless sooner.

I think that im not going to save my tax money because its ment to stimulate the economy and putting it into an account doesnt do jack squat. Im thinking either turbo manifold and maybe intercooler or im going to do some exterior stuff.
 
Im hoping i get more back in taxes though, and if i can get my dad's accountant to do it, im going to claim the laptop because im in the Digital Animation program at Ferris and a lot of people in my program claim ALL their computer stuff.
 
2.5 as in 2500??!?!?!! HOLY SHMOLY! I paid 1700 for this desktop and its got 3 gig mem. and a terabite hard drive. ATI graphics card and 19" widescreen hd monitor. so i got out alright on that one.
1700?!?!? i hate to break it to you but i think you may have got ripped on that one our church just bought a new dell comp for 600 and it had 3 gig mem only a 350gb hard drive but heck externals are cheap (we bought a 500gb for $100) and a 22 widescreen hd lcd monitor for 220 all told we spend 920! and got a bit more in some ways and a bit less in other![grinking] o well such is the world of computers[?|]
 
The nvidia just didn't cut it for me when it came to playing games on my laptop. I play the same games on my desktop and its WAY better graphics. And yes I got ripped...its best buy!


By the way...got my tuner and udp in last night! WOOT, installing tonight. Looked at what vehicles I can tune and how much power I could see. Gonna tune my girlfrieds dad's truck while I'm at it! 190 hp and 200 ftlb tq gains!!!!! Should be fun...
 
i've always been an ATI fan ive had an nvidia card and all it did was give me problems [chair] but its been like 5-6yrs since so they've most likely gotten better. but personally i like the crossfire function better than the GLI but ive been tainted [^]
 
SO, got my stuff. Anybody know tuning...aaannddd wanna give me some pointers or show me whats best? haha...and I dont see ANYWHERE in that thing where it shows to turn off traction control!
