Well she already told ya an "SS"!!
Isn't that enough?!? (No, ...)

We need more info.
What year SS?
What is it that he wants? (It may be a good idea to get him something he really wants & take all the guess work out of it for us, ..., we don't have a clue as to whether or not he has anything we mention already in his possesion.)

"What should I get him?" There's way too many answers available to pin it down, ...

Does the car already have any aftermarket items on it?

lol.. no not everygirl is a freak like me about cars... is pretty normal actually not to know what your boyfriend added to his car, and if anything you can always get him a card with a little note that says, This car is Good For any Mods. you want for your car. Thats what i got last year

I'd get him a Air Lid, K&N filter, smooth bellow, and maybe an Catback exhaust, like Magnaflow!!! LMperformance.com has the best price on Stull Grill's

with this one.. I would get what he wants.

You have jumped from nitrous, to appearance mods, to tires, to headers.

YOu have 800 to burn.. give him the cash and tell him to make up HIS mind. Not OURS.

I know you want to do something special, but if you buy one thing and he wanted another.. thats bad. And throwing parts at a car because you have the money is bad too.

You and your boyfriend should have a plan for the car and attack it that way.
