<< My parents upped my budget to $1000, but effectively lowered it by doing

I now have to pay to get my truck painted (so now I will get a dark blue,
and hold off on the two white stripes up the top, like the ones on the cool
looking Viper paint jobs) and for the tires. I found a place that will paint
for $275, and I am sure decent tires will cost me $250. That leaves me w/
$475 to spend. I am thinking I should get the following items, based on what
you all have mentioned the most:
1) K&N Air Filter ($29 from www.dccarcare.com)
2) K&N FIPK ($110 from same place)
3) Walker Dynomax cat back exhaust system ($125 not sure if that includes
labor, or if I can put it on myself)
4) Trans-Go Shift Kit ($100 - Mine shifts a 2100 RPM, and that kills me, so
this is on thing I am definitely getting)
5) 180 Thermostat ($20 w/ coolant and water)
6) Use the $50 thats left, plus next weeks pay check ($300) and use to buy
mopar computer, and 93 octance gas, which is about 93 cents a gallon.

Skip the regular K&N filter and get the K&N FIPK. You'll be glad you did. If I
were you I'd be careful what size exhaust you get. Alot of people have lost
low end torque going to a three inch cat back system.
