Neon LOL!
Seriously, the car is now taking on a personal meaning to me. It won't be the quickest, nicest looking, or anything else, but it will be what I want. And that makes me feel good, and makes me enjoy the car that much more. Yes, I'm spending a ton of money to do it, but even without that you can still personalize the car. Make it yours, and above all, have fun! And yes, I know most of you already know this.
As Katherine Hepburn and Cary Grant would say, “She’s Yar!â€Â
She’s yar, and she’s mine.

How about: (1) GT2 intercoolers (I didn't see any reference to upgraded intercoolers on your list); (2) Aquamist methanol/water injection system (boost actuated direct spray into the intake); (3) Aquamist methanol/water intercooler sprays (boost actuated); (4) upgraded intake piping (Gemballa, TTP or others); (5) Cargraphic alloy strut tower bar (I didn't see any reference to a strut tower bar on your list); (6) K40 or V1 radar detector and laser diffuser; and (7) SmarTire tire pressure monitoring system.

Wow, you've done a lot.
I plan to monitor my intake charge temp and see if I need better intercoolers. I don't plan to use sprays as I don't drag the car, just track it and most of those aren't long term usable (20-40 minutes). I have the Passport SRX which is supposed to be superior to the K40. If I start to monitpr the suspension I will evaluate strut bars. Once I go to track tires, I will probably add strut braces. With street rubber, most feel it's unnecessary. Cary said race rubber shows benefifts so, if Cary speaks, I listen.

Why not just come over to Reno and we can get some hookers? I like that idea better.

My brother lives in Incline Village. I'll join you for golf or skiing. I'll challenge you in skiing but not golf. I shot 113 at Kemper Lakes 2 weeks ago. Ughh! My game is in the cr@pper. Married and morals, sorry, no hookers for me.

Xico, you're the big dog and I'm leaving you on the porch. Seriously, you have done more than me and I may be talking to you about some of your stuff. Let me run this weekend and let's see how she does.
