Default There's a ws9 for auction

Check ebay, you might get lucky and win it, it's an Original U.S. Exotics. He's also auctioning the firehawk version. Good luck with your hood.

headers, say 400 for the e-bay ones. new gaskets, some locking header bolts, gonna say 100 bucks since I fancy the breslin ones. A tune, theres 250 bucks right there. then I need a y pipe, if the e-bay noes dont release a y pipe before I get them, i'll have to buy the over priced jet hot y which is like 200 bucks + shipping. so yea, it can add to 700 easy

OH! I thought you meanti $600 for the headers and $700 for the tune to equal $1300 !!!

That makes much more sense... It also means come up with $10 and you'll have the $610 for the WS9 hood...

It's better to get what you want than settle (I would have had an Ultra-Z hood instead of the smooth sunoco if I had settled and I am SO glad now that I didn't)...

Get the hood now while it is cheaper and then pay for the tune later (if you have to, I still think you have enough money to do both)...

Breslins are nice !

eh not quite ready for the hood yet though thats the problem. my grandpa is stubborn and thinks we can fix the stock hood and ive been beating the **** out of it sow e cant fix it so he doesnt have a choice but to let me get the other hood lol. I think to final my decision will end up being how much money i got to play with when its voer and done with and if the heat extractors function. if they dont then no need to fork out more money for a non-functioning thing

I am pretty sure (as long as they are an open hole) they would be functional (at least when you are stopped)...

so lets analyze this. 610 for the hood IF I get it during the GP. then another 100 bucks for shipping, maybe more. back to square 1 thats 710. that leaves me with under 300 for mods. now thw Ws6 hood I can get for 420 + 100 shipping =520 elave me with a lil over 400

Yeah, no ****. But, I still don't think that's what he was talking about. WTF is a "Raptor H.O." heat extractor?

Yes, it does go into the heat extractors. When I wash my car it actually goes inside of the hood. When I open my hood you can hear the water wash down and see it exit out of the holes where the hinges are. But, if I don't open the hood, the water eventually exits somewhere, though I haven't figured out where.
