Take that $1000 and invest it in a long term capital gain mutual fund like MCHFX (Matthews China, my personal cash cow). In 20 years who knows what it could be worth. It'll be way more than $1,000 though I can tell you that much!

The smartest thing I ever did was invest and learn about saving money.

Trust me, I am sure that $1,000 was hard to earn, but so easy to spend. Once you mod and you get the bug, that $1000 will turn into 10 gaurenteed.

Don't ask me how I know! Invest 10%-20% of your income, and splurge the rest on the car! Best of both worlds.

Rather have it sit in the bank than put a bunch of money in a 10 year old car worth 5k either. Explain how it's a poser car if he doesn't mod it?

What a dumb ******* statement. So your saying dumping that 1k into his car isn't going to be a total loss? I sure as hell never saw a penny of the 3grand I had in my SS back when I sold the car. Sure it's fun to mod, but if I have a grand I'm not gonna go ******* blow it on a damn car. I always had AT LEAST triple the amount of whatever I spent in mods.

Finally to Jakester, hit up chad at green light motor sports. He's a sponsor on the board here. He can probably get your cam install and tune done in one weekend or so for the price of a big shops dyno tune only cost. I got a REALLY good deal. I won't say what as his prices may have changed, but I will tell you it's def. worth checking out.
