Flickr, which so far is the best i have used. I pay though, but i dont think it makes a difference quality wise.

So far ive found that pictures hosted on slickpic,razzi and photobucket drop resolution.

Back to your build, are you considering a headlight mod?

TURBONATER= pointless and stupid. It doesnt do anything for the car. most people actually lose power putting those pieces of crap in...

K&N filter, tune(thru eurocharged, kleemann etc) and do the exhaust. Anything else will cost you.

Get rid of your secondary cats too, and if you want to get crazy swap the mufflers and delete your primary cats.

hey bud thx for answerin .....so forget the turbobulll gotcha what about a ecu upgrade what u think of that and whats it do when u get rid of your secondaary cats it just gets louder or u get more out of it and what about a powerchip for extra torque and hp i know they say 30 hp or wtvs its bs but the way i see it even a extra 10 hp for 60 or 100 or hopefully 15hp or more sounds worth it to me even for a 500 chip what do u think chip is good or no and is there a brand thats in favor
