Thing is - the finished product is often a progressive misadventure. Try one part - remove it and try another - till you got it your way... Why should I reinvent the wheel trying to take my car to what is a known level... This is the whole point of trading information whether on here - or face to face with another owner... IMHO
It is not my intent to ask someone what they paid to go FI but it would be cool if they happened to leak the info in round about numbers while talking about how bitchin their car looks... I mean unless you are tracking your Z why even do it - when you consider US hiways, and local Popo in general.

^ Right.. like I said I used to always think that question "How much did you spend on XXX?" offensive. But again, it's only offensive if the person's asking out of hate (like trying to see if your rims are more/less baller than his). But if it's an innocent young ricer asking me just to see how much he needs to save up to get up to baller status like me , I'd gladly tell him how much he'll need to save up from his allowance.
E.g.
"How much did that turbo kit set you back?"
!=
"How much would it cost me to go FI?"
The latter I'm more than OK discussing.

^ I'm from lakewood lol
I think op was just tryin to make small talk and the guy was a dick. When tryin to explain this in his first post he stated that they looked like sears rims to express the uncertainty of what the guy was saying. Anyways rims are rims... its all in how they look for the most part right. Who cares if they are tsw or volks if you like them and cherish them who cares what someone else thinks.
If we sit here and bicker about someone elses set up does that make us better? **** I'm happy with my pro 1 exhaust and stock 08 rims. Vortek or tt.... its boost... congrats on making your car faster.
Some of y'all have met me before and you know ill ask you what you paid or how hard is it to install. But for me I am asking because I am looking for options. There is no need to be a dick to a fellow car lover unless he is askin out of spite. But then again some people are just dicks and think their **** is the ****. O well.
Let's all just laugh at the op story and live on .... hating isn't gonna change anything
