$60 on a drop-in air filter. With all of the thousands of dollars that people have spent modifying their car, I don't feel so bad about taking a loss on trading in my Eclipse and keeping the Evo stock.

Race alignment on stock suspension = $60
So, ~$3800 the majority being racing-related items (rims/tires/alignment/clutch)

I just added it up. ~$2300, not including tires related stuff (alignment, rotation, balance, or new tires). For that kind of cash, I'd say my power is pretty good.
Note: If I wasn't married, I would be afraid to guess how much I would have wasted on this money pit.
