Find a way to get me the money for it and you can put me down for more than half of that list. Otherwise it's going to be at least a couple years for the big items, more if I start making double/triple payments on my student loans which would be the smarter thing to do (though far less fun).

I understand that, I started out small and worked up. I started out with HO cams, JBA Headers, Superchips and Borla exhaust. I still say best bang for the buck are the H.O. cams for a non HO.

Steel bumpers are in the body/cosmetic dept. maybe even up there with winches and such. I'm talking performance mods 0-60, quarter mile rubber burning madness.

As far as mud holes, the things I usually hunt like Mustangs, GTOs and such you won't find out there. Mudding is cool, but I don't much of it on city streets on Friday nights If I ever give up going fast, I will pick up mudding. Or you could build a wicked blown mudder for both street and sod!

Eric, stick to modding the talon! You will be seeing 10's in that thing and those are certainly big boy mods.

Engine swaps are certainly up there. So lets see some!
