Yeah, good point... However, we're just assuming that was what he meant lol.

I couldn't agree more, as your exactly 100% spot on.

Agreed, assuming that was what @5.0MustangNamedTyrone was referring to in his comment.

I also took what it actually meant as a reference in general as well.

Didn't mean it as as insult, just information based on life experiences. If someone is thinking about getting a blower, and their question is how much is it and it's 7k, they have 7k to spend, they can't afford it.

Just want to let people know that haven't been down this road what comes up. I've spent 100s of thousands of dollars on cars in my life, and whatever you think you're going to spend on modding a car heavily, go ahead and increase your budget by 50 percent over the next year.

That's great, glad to hear that you're enthusiastic about cars, I love to see that with young people. Don't know that you are young, but I get that impression. Either way, just wanted to put out a little firsthand knowledge about mods on cars.

I'm too old to mess with that stuff anymore, I just buy one that is the nastiest of the breed, and if it ain't enough I'll get someone younger and smarter to take it farther.

No worries, as none of us here are perfect, we're all guilty when it comes to making mistakes...
