Most people on here dont mod performance wise because you have to save for a while to be able to afford anything that offers performance for our cars. Me on the other hand blew all my money on bolt ons before knowing they did nothing!

Doing suspension and engine work, or was. I'm getting some new wheels/tires and I think that's going to finish me off. I plan on trading the car in this summer for something else.

not really. if you go nitrous, the little bolt ons you bought would help out. Intake/Headers/Exhaust would help out with the nitrous set up.

I do. I have an intake (which is off now since it blew), exhaust(gift) (isnt bad at all, 2.25" tip), tokico HPs, Goldline Springs, System(will go to next car) 17" MBMotoring Rims (will go to next car), redid my dash (like 40 bucks), Revo SS (gift), front upper tie bar (ebay), reverse indiglos (ebay).

I realize I am sort of wasting money, but I am having fun with it. I will probably pay this car off (keeping it) and buy a new one to drive thats older and nice. I am going to put some nitrous in my car in a few months hopefully, followed by professional custom leather interior (dash seats doors, redo floor and roof).

This thread needs a poll.
I do both but mostly appearance just to set me apart from the thousands of other 7thgens on the street.
