haha..yeah they are located in the ghetto..But it is a really nice shop. Not sure how much they have changed since I was there. But they usually have a show car inside the shop and have there team car outside.

Sorry, I wish I could get you a hook up.. they dont really know me that well. I was just a daily customer.

Im not quiet sure on the whole Ignition kit by MSD. I havent seen a dyno chart to see if you get gains. But Jacobs Ice Pack say they give gains up to 20 HP. Not sure though.

I think the headers really bring out your engine bay with the intake. I got the cermaic headers . Yours are the DC sports Stainless steal right?

I went inside Jotech today and it wasn't bad. They have a lot of display parts around...and rims. What really attracted me were the Momo rims and seats. They were real nice.

I also went to the paint shop next to them and got an estimate from the guy who owns it. He said that he would charge me $775 for the front bumper, fenders, hood, mirrors, rear bumper and trunk. And this is with factory paint, too...the high quality stuff. Not bad, eh? But he wanted me to get it done within like 2 weeks....I don't have that kind of money on me yet. At least now I know where to go for a paint job.

Jacobs Ice Pack...hmm...gotta do some research on that. I'll probably get an ignition kit sometime in the future. The Ice Pack is an ignition kit, right?

My headers are OBX SS 4-2-1. Everyone critiqued on me getting them because they were skeptical about the quality of OBX. So far I had no problems though. *knock on wood*

Yeah..Thats a really good estimate in my opioion. I got my estimate around 1200 for bumper, grill, side skirts, rear skirts, and a couple of dents knocked out, and shave the trunk.

I think you headers look awesome. I like the color. Is yours a 5-speed? Or Auto?

wow....yeah he said that it would be $1500 for my entire car. That's not bad at all I think...

Thanks about the headers again. Only thing is...they turn brown after some time...so I took pics of the nice gold/purple-gold while it lasted. Hehe.
