Well, a SC is adaptable, they even have electric ones now, I think...ha! Anyway, If you're worried about costs, putting lots of mods can make the truck less reliable. Just saying.

WI is that tough on emissions? I thought my area was rough. Most diesels are exempt...oh well.

Dakman - my truck is registered in Milwaukee which because of its size is strict on emission because of all the people, outside of that its not bad at all. Yes I know about the reliability issue but might as well make it more fun to drive while you can drive it!

Thunder - I agree with your post completely. Having a boosted motor would be awesome but having something that is pure engine is always something to brag about. What do you think would be a killer semi-streetable set up?

lghtnblt - Never heard of them before but I will for sure look them up now!

Dakman - I check it out and it looks legit. yes urban living does suck but I do like that if I need anything there is a store within 10 mins.

Thunder - You think that the 224 wouldn't be too big for the street? The Turbo is niccce, but I was thinking about it in class today and I thought that my MPG would go to nothing, So I told myself its going to be a built N/A or I buy myself a CBR
