TO the OP,
YOU Have made me "SWELL" lmao, i must have a two step now, damn it, another 215 to the budget. plus 1k for the stall, damn it. lmao. good **** man, lets see some launches!!

you never go in with a budget, my goal was to get turbod for 2k, i did it, no problem. Now the problem with that budget, it didnt allow for things that i want, on top of things i needed. Sure i could roam around on stock stall converter, F THAT I SAY! its all or nothing!

but without a budget or goal you won't meet your needs or won't do it the best way.

i agree with part of this, I agree that you must have a goal, But if you have a real budget then you might not be able to meet your goal in the most efficient way possible due to budget constraints.

its just my opinion. I belive in goals, But i believe in realistic goals as well. And not saying everyone is like me, But i have learned in teh past to not set constraints for myself when trying to reach a goal. For me, it just never works out.

My goal is budget but reliable. I have found a eboost 2 and alky control kit for less than the control kit alone. I search high and low for deals.
