i, like most members, stopped counting how much i've spent. You either enjoy it, and buy when you have the extra, or you bail, and fall off the site.
...or... your like ION, and spend every ounce of cash you have, including student loans, to improve a car that'll never be worth the money put into it.... just so you can impress teh womenz by doing wheel spins around them.

I spent 60 to have my struts and springs installed, and alignment. I love Mexico
Yeah, but the piping shouldn't be too expensive. I think you should be able to get it with the 50 you mentioned. After all, you already have the actual filter, so all you need is pipes.

I don't know, it depends on how you want to run it, look at the hole and figure it out. Pipe routing isn't that hard.

Dude I'm making $800 CDN every two weeks collecting Employment Insurance, and I'm still modding my car, I'm not spending as much as I did when I was working but I'm still spending and it's aways less than $320 even when converted to USD, you shuld be able to pull it off lol and your girl will not mind you spending less on her and more on your car if she is to you what she says she is. lol remember when she says "it's just a car" you have to say "and you're just a girl" don't worry man I've been in your postition before and I'm sure I'll be there again just don't forget what you learn from it.

I had about 2400 in the car, had it been turbo'ed, that would have gone up to a little under 4K. Built engine as planned the next summer would have been 5 or 6.
I had close to all the money I made this summer towards turbo parts, and the day I got in the accident, was planning on spending another 700 to get the last of the shit I needed.

Most likely the other way around. 90 degree to get into the hole into the fender, and then 45 to get enough room away from the body to fit a filter on the end of the piping.
I used to have a picture of when I ran mine, but now I don't even have an intake. Just an open turbo. I have to figure out a way to route piping to a nice filter away from the heat back there, but for now, it's just nothing.
