The pink hood light would net you some 10's for sure though

Good luck with your project!!!

First lets talk about your desired power levels because thats determines everything including supporting mods like IC, Fuel, etc.

What are you planning 500whp? more?

you started buyings mods in reverse, keep it another year and install it when you finished building your car, or let the stock ecu do it all.
or just sell it to me for cheap and buy performance mods
what ever you do read and good luck in the evo scene
