Default Self made mods.....

I like KORE CAI, but what about an ABS self made? My brother just made me a strut bar with 1`` square tubing, cost: 16$ can. Short shifter, I cut it off. I`ll weld it back on when I sell the car. If it`s too much trouble, why not a used one and cut it off.. Free flow cath converter, I emptied mine. The check engine light came on so I removed the bulb, emission control is not a problem yet around here. Bored TB can be done at machine shop. I bought a real cath back muffler, but a universal and saved 200.00. I fit it myself. I got 8.8 Accel universal wires for 60$ can. All this to say that if you use creativity and work it yourself, you can save a lot of money for the same results.

Hey man.. if you ever want to be able to sell your car, you'll have to get that check engien light replaced.. if you get it saftied it will fail..!! the check engine light blinks everytime you start your car for a couple of seconds, if they see it not blinking.. and find out the bulb is taken out.. major crap you are going to be in..
