$3,000....what to buy???
I just got a huge refund on a p.o.s computer I bought and I want to spend some of the money on my GTU. What would be the best h.p. per dollar I could get? And mabey a little bit of looks?
And I was just curious If anyone had header/pre-silencer and some good aftermarket mufflers, ie:HKS, RB, Apexi N1? I need something that add's substantial power with a deep(and not too loud)sound. Im sick of driving a chainsaw with wheels!

That's about my budget on my RX-7. But some of it is going towards a rebuild... here's the small list I've compiled
Exhaust = RB Header ~> Custom 2.5" piping ~> Borla XR-1 Muffler ( to act as a presilencer ) ~> 2.5" Piping ~> Corksport Exhaust.
I'm getting a rebuild, and a full streetport, Pineapple Racing Sleeves, and a Custom CAI. Removing all emissions, electric fan, removing airpump, TB Mod. I'll probably have my manifolds matched and ported. Electronic 6th port actuation ( www.fc3s.org ) because I want functioning 6th ports, but no airpump. Then, when that's all said and done, ( I'll do other things too, but I can't list everything ) I'm hopping on a dyno, and sending the results, along with my spare fuel comp. to SAS racing, to get their Auto-cross Chip put in... then it's off to suspension mods, and cosmetics...
That, is my 6 month plan.

I had a dream last night about finding a TII in a junkyard for $200.... nice dream. Maybe it was all that talk of the 88 AE that's less than an hour from me and for sale... who knows?
Even still, I could probably get a TII cheaper than the mods I listed. But even with the mods, it's quick(er) and more importantly RELIABLE. My RX-7 will be my only car, so a TII (AKA. Shop Baby) is out of the question.
