Default Your Dream Shopping Spree....

Scenario
You just won a $10,000 shopping spree on LS1Tech eligible for any parts from any vendors on LS1Tech, so long as:

a) They are LSX or LTX parts

b) They are parts for your CURRENT vehicle (can't use it to buy a new car)

Other Rules:

- No shipping costs to you

- Don't figure in install/tuning costs, this is for parts only

- Keep in mind $10,000, so don't just say "The biggest LSX stroker with the biggest turbo I can find"

- Feel free to be as specific as possible, since that's what makes this fun. Example of a boring response: "A heads and cam setup and whatever suspension I can afford with the remaining money". BOOOOO.

- If you overspend your hypothetical shopping spree limit, you lose your hypothetical shopping spree

- I will be looking for current new prices on parts to check your limit (feel free to hypothetically internet argue with me all you'd like, since we can't do hypotheticals in the street racing section)

- If I come up with any other rules, I'll insert them when I feel like it

I will come up with a list, but you must be honestly bored at work, arnt yea joe lol.

***

I will say this, that people can buy parts but I would think supporting mods should be required/ considered.

Like stock injectors and pump on a BIG F1a Procharger is kinda weak.

At current prices, just over $4,000 for the 402 short block and just under $6,000 for the APS Twin Turbo kit, the Textralia twin disk puts you well over the limit. You lose your shopping spree.

Oh yeah, I've decided that if you go over the limit, you lose your hypothetical shopping spree.

EDITED RULES IN OP.

Nice. You receive said hypothetical shopping spree, although specifics on the audio equipment would be fun to look at.

And check. Congratulations guys. In a hypothetical world, you now both have some kickass cars. And I believe Mike has a little cash leftover...perhaps for a nice big wing on the back and some NAWWSSSS stickers?

Haha, well, you got $10,000 in hypothetical money, and it looks like you spent it well.

We could all use more hypothetical money.

Oh, man! Wouldn't you know it? TSP just happened to be having a hypothetical sale on their 402 longblocks for $2K! Woohoo!

Oh, and since I'm hypothetically half Australian, I got the Textrailia clutch for $400.

Sweet, with the APS kit at a reasonably hypothetical price of $6K, I'm good!
