Ha true that! yea from the looks of it the gears and efan seem to make the biggest difference performance wise. I'm really thinkin bout the fastman throttle body too. Then maybe headers. But it's all gonna take awhile of course. Plus I really don't want to waste any money on mods that won't do much. So any input is greatly appreciated!

That's great man I'm definitely wanting to put one of these on. Do you know if there are any others still listed? That's an awesome price!

Not many mods to mine but here is they are in the order they were installed:
- Air Raid intake and filter
- Replaced factory "Y" pipe with custom piping into an 2in-1out Magnaflow muffler
- Ram Air hood (more for looks than performance)
- 2inch drop shackles


These mods I would like to eventually get to do:
- headers
- Superchips
- e-fan
- 2008 intake manifold
