CH@Dbee - thats not a good way to tell could have been the test pipes. I know our headers are good and not worth the $ for replacements. Anyone have specifics?

I think that's a good idea. Don't wanna start putting money into the car then have stuff jacked from you, or worse yet have the car itself stolen. Besides, you'd still have a good chunk of change left to do other small things.

How much do the Volks and other wheels that most members buy cost? I don't really think there's a cheap way out...

Yeah exactly.

Now that I look back at it, I misunderstood his post. I thought he was saying that he would hate to see wheels of such a big expense on the car, when in reality, he was saying the opposite. I was thinking to myself, 1K isn't anything...

+1. If you can only afford $1,000 rims you should just stick to the stock wheels (which I kind of like, actually)
