Wife is letting me get something up to +-300... i really want to get a new SSS Catback.. but then i had the idea of keeping it and flirting with nitrous :/

any other routes? would like gears, but i like my 25mpg highway.

i could always just get mufflers for 120+misc odds and ends like new hood stripe or even powdercoat the dam wheels..but i kinda like them flat. i just need to repaint them haha..

Damn dude, how fast are you going on the freeway? At 70 with 4.10's I still get 26 with the A/C. :woot2:

I got 23ish doing 90 with 4.30s. in my 99 gt with the 4V cams, and bolt ons...

You will be fine...if your mileage changes...its cause your driving style changes...or you are going too fast...99% of MPG is in the tune, not the gears.

abilene to conroe i usually just stick it in cruise.

if i get the gears im gonna need the speed cal :( so that may break my budget.

i may get new decals/2.5in catback exhaust. haha, not much i can do with 300ish$.

Just don't tell your wife about the extra $$ from the tdy, and splurge! Lol
that's what I'd do...just tell her you got a smoking good deal on everything. :D

on a serious note, I like the gears/tune idea. If you watch American Muscle for their monthly specials, they have a combo deal sometimes, though I'm not sure if it's within your budget. Maybe a little sweet talking to the old lady is in order... Lol
