what would guys do if you have $3000 cash to spend on a stock D17, would yall go all motor or get it boosted?

I personally preferr turbo, but after all these issues people are having after couple months, i'm a little frustrated, at least I think all motor should avoid all these issues.

Isn't all motor setup runs more efficient than turbo and less issues such as fuel, pipes, leaks....etc ?

You don't want all the problems that go along with having a turbo. I just did some NA mods and even then having some trouble. Modding isn't easy, and you have to work at it.

get a body kit (don't paint it, thats to much money), a huge aluminum wing, some neons, deffiently LED winsheild washer pissers, and maybe a huge exhaust tip.

If you really want to go N/A i'd keep saving your money cause there's not that much out for the D17 yet for N/A applications. I'd keep the money and wait to see what the aftermarket companys do before you go spending cash.
