Or if you say it that way, you've "only" (I know it's a lot!) got +38hp, and you would have to do a little less than 200% more than you've done already.

If you're talking about "rich enough," then NO.

I hate when people see some kid at the high school, with a Denali on 24's and they say, "Man, that kid is so rich!"

No, it's his parents that are rich.

The same applies for me. Don't think for once that I can afford all that I have. If anything, you should be applauding Trent (S2K1); he has more mods than me, is only 17, and paid for them all with his own money.

So that's not to say I don't earn what I get, it's just that in the end, it came out of my parents pockets, not mine.

Common misconception that so many people just don't get...

well like I said.... in theory........ the parts themselves should add about 100 or more hp to the motor, including tuning. Now whether or not you put them all together and make that much is a whole 'nuther story. My cams are a case in point. Toda claims 10-15 hp, but that obviously didn't happen. However my car is in bad need of tuning. So when running optimum AFR, it could come out true.... time (and money.... and tuning ) will tell. But if my wallet can stand it, I'm gonna try, this car is so freaking cool.

And did I mention the huge MOJO in making 300 whp with a NA 4 cylinder???? I don't care if you are faster.... you don't need to be fast with balls that big!!!!!
