Since I bought my car, I've made some very good friends....and I've learned a TON about what to do with these things....I've got probably thousands of dollars initially spent in mod money in the car.....most of it I've recouped by selling them to upgrade.

But to answer your question, I don't regret it a single bit. Because of this car, and the mods available....I've formed some pretty tight bonds with people across the country. And I wouldn't give it up for anything.

Brian is right about the bonding and friendships. Just know that if you start modding, it's going to cost you, but it's a lot of fun too. Without a big budget, pick your mods wisely.

If you don't have the money, don't even bother modding. Why? Not that your car will be unrealible with a few bolt ons, alot of people do mods and let good maintence go to hell. Then there car ends up falling apart. If you don't have to money to do both, and not let yourself go under (backrupt), don't bother.

If your truely don't have any money, save you money and keep your car maintenced and tuned up. You'd be better off. Now if you have a little money laying around, do a few small mods here and there, take your time. Do a major tune up first, then work on flow mods. Don't bother doing a pulley right away, thats where most people screw up and then they blow there motors. Don't even think about installing a pulley without a scanner of your own. With a good tune up and some flow mods your car should run a little quicker + even get better MPG and your car will be very realible. That kit your looking at on 3800 perf or where ever is NOT a good starter kit and you'll end up with mucho KR problems. You need a good flowing intake/exhaust, cooling, and PCM tweaks at least to be safe.

Once you start getting into bigger mods... pulleys, rockers, ICs, cams, heads, etc... You better make sure to have some money on the side. As the old saying goes, you gotta pay to play. When highly modifying ANY car **** is going to happen. Be ready for it, thats all I can say. I've been around the GP scene since 1999, around 9 years now and i've seen many come and go. Most people wouldn't have any problems if they would just use a little common sense, thats all it really takes to modify any car. Time, research, money, and common sense.

Good Luck...

All i can say is that it's VERY addictive. You initially start out with a few mods here or there and before you know it youre living paycheck to paycheck, dumping a 1/4 or more of each paycheck into mods. Im not in debt or anything, but my money is usually spoken for when i get paid. So if you're already strapped for cash, listen to Shawn (IronIndian). Mods are a here or there thing, but general maintenance HAS to be adressed or youll be walking to your destination. If you cant mod it comfortably, then save your money. Either way, good luck and hope the mod bug is good to ya!
