how about some gas cards, or a full car detail by someone that knows what they are doing. then you can go pick her up and roll around for a bit.

good Idea I believe that would be a bit more though if you want to get two mufflers with your duals......or put back the 150 and save another 4 or 5 grand for a super or turbocharger haha...

You could almost get a TSP Rumbler.

I would go with a Pro 5.0 shifter.
