Happy with mid 13's?  I will not be happy till I hit 11's.  I will still probly keep going though.
yeah, 11's would be sweet, but that would probably require going to Multi Point Fuel Injection, which requires an assload of parts (Intake manifold, injectors etc.) and a good Standalone fuel computer, not to mention re-plumbing intercooler piping and other various things..

It would cost like $1500 to go from 15's to 13's, and to get to 12's would be like $6000 for the multi point injection and all that, and then 11's would need a bigger turbo, more boost, internals, cam, headwork, and all of that more "hardcore" stuff.

I wish I could spend $10k on a $2000 car, but mid 13's and a nicely restored older sports car are good enough for now.

Eventually, I will prob end up getting an AWD DSM to staisfy my needs for pure speed, b/c as far as speed on a budget, it doesnt get much better than an AWD 1g.

BTW, what is your last name, I think I might know you, did you go to hopkins? I might be thinking of someone else tho...
