I'm a sophmore in highschool and there is this Junior who just got $20,000 worth of work done to his (used to be) TT RX-7....he went with a single GReddy turbo kit with FMIC and a bunch of internal ****. I dont know much about rotary engines so im not sure on what kind of internal stuff...BUT IT HAULS BALLS!!

Yeah I agree with everybody's reaction I was very doubtful about the truth of the amount of money the kid threw into the car. Me and incublinkus were debating it actually over the past few days. There is no doubt the kid has the money, from my understanding the guys dad is a sports agent. But I believe he fibbed a little to possibly exhibit is blingness... (drives an escalade with 22's) Anyway, my thoughts have been confirmed thanks guys.

For $35k, you could buy three civics in excellent shape.

Def NOT $1,900. I know that for a fact. One thing you're not getting is that this kid is RICH! Anyway, doesn't really matter I just wanted to get some other people's insight on this. My confusion has been resolved.

Feb issue of Sport Compact Car shows an Integra that has $80,000 worth mod. The car had672 miles on when the money was dumped to it.
So this guy is driving around $100,000 Integra.:doh:
It has forged internal parts with T3/04 turbo, carbonfiber hood, 18inch Volks, momo seats, comptech coilovers, all computer stuff...
