    sooo most likely it's a base model cause it's a rental car..

    so your telling me a ~150hp ~3000lb car and your not spinning any tires?

    doesn't sound too believeable.

      I don't think he's driving it the right way, haha.

        Alright apparently Pepboys has what I need to fix my brakes for almost $20 cheaper than Advance. Sure it's 30 minutes away, but with my ever-tightening budget I'd say it's worth it. I'll be giving PB a call tomorrow to make sure they have it.

            Got pins and springs from Pepboys to fix my brakes, nice and shiny. No more squeeking! Whoohoo! Also got a mounting kit for my intake so it's not bouncing around.

                That's be nice. What did you have in mind? Maybe I could get a price estimate to see if it's worth it.

                    Well I'm not sure what you want exactly, what I have now (2 couplers, 3" plastic tubing, filter, support) cost around $75 total. The cost without that filter is around $30-35. 2.5" aluminum would obviously cost much more.

                      i'm interested in something like 2.5" aluminum that actually fits on the maf; plastic tubing wud pretty much be like stock without the ribs.... if your local auto store carries that.. the filter won't be necessary i already have one. even the couplers i can grab those myself. just the actualy piping..wonder how much that wud cost

                        Just the piping wouldn't cost much at all. Off Spectre's website it costs around $40 for the 2 parts for my intake. Next time I get the money, hopefully Saturday since I'll be babysitting, I'll order the parts and get it in my car and take some pics.

                          Spectre mounting kit I got while at Pepboys. Amazing how it screwed perfectly into the MAF bolt hole. Mounted to a bolt next to the battery that the airbox was held on with. No more sinking down or hitting the battery.

                              It was $5. Came with more than anyone should need, unless you plan on mounting it from the bottom of the engine bay, lol.

                                i'm going to check locally to see if i can get something like this.

                                thinking about that.. i can't remember when i last popped my hood. except to check oil
