I was saying, if you wanted to sell your AEM, I could sell you my K&N for pretty cheap. It's just sitting in my garage and I have some extra charge oil and cleaning solution for it that I can throw in with the intake. I don't have a use for it since I'm getting my turbo in 1-2 months. Send me a PM if you're interested.

Who else is? I know Tod is planing on it, but everyone else just seems to kind of just say that they 'want' it. I was in that phase for 2 years before I finally bought the turbo.
Most people just see the $3200 price tag for the simple kit and think they can afford it, when in reality it's more like $6500-$8000 for everything, plus you need extra funding in case anything goes wrong.

You definitely have to pay to play! Yeah, there're a few people I know going the turbo route in the area. I was going to go turbo on my car, but I've recently decided that I'm not putting any more money into the tC...I'm just gonna get a second car to play with, if I can find one for the right price.

I don't mind dumping $10,000 into my car, especially since I planned on a Saturn Sky Redline ($32k) or an Evo 9 MR ($35k). So I'm still at a lesser price than those two cars, plus insurance won't be telling me to drop the soap.
