still needs to be lowered, lol. just cant justify mod spending right now. last thing i did was get a K&N drop-in instead of the the homemade SRI; the home made was hurting my gas mileage. again when i have some cash ill probably make my own CAI, its actually very easy to do. the MC 1.6 is MAP-based; the only caveat is that the ECU is bolted to the stock airbox for some reason. i had it zip tied out of the way before and it seemed to be fine. priorities for the next year and a half are maximizing fuel economy and getting the stance right. its such a capable little handler now that the wheels and tires are of a non-terrifying width and pushed out to the corners where they should be. once i finish my degree we'll see what happens. if i have a long commute i may pay it off and keep running it as a DD mileage whore and buy a gen coupe or something else to build for fun , or i may pick up a sonata for the DD duties (my fiance has an 08 2.4L and its soo nice and comfy compared to the accent and my old tib) and start a turbo build on the accent. who knows!
