    No affense Rockefella, but most tuners arent even near 1000 horsepower. If his eclipse was pushing 1200-1300 horsepower, i would be crapping bricks.
    No offense, but I was being sarcastic. All these import-crazed Fast and Furious fanboys put bodykits and 19+ inch spinners on their cars often with fart-can exhausts and neon-effects. However, open up the engine bay and you see their 1.8L Econo-box powerplant running through an automotic gearbox. Actually, their might be a K&N Air Filter and an 'Ice-man' Intake, adding a massive 15 hp.

    19inch HPD Spinout Rims
    Toyo Proxes 4 Tires (Might add more grip, but I doubt it, most likely just low-profile)
    Carbon Fiber Spoiler
    Projection Headlights
    TYC Carbon Fiber Tail Lights
    White Under Lights
    Eibach Sportline Springs (Assuming this was for lowering the car, but probably improved handling)
    KYB GR-2 Struts and Shocks (Most likely associated w/ the above)
    Brembo Cross Drilled Rotors (The car isn't fast enough for cross-drilled Brembo's but I suppose they look good)
    AEM V2 Intake (Intake goes hand-in-hand w/ Carbon-Fibre kits)
    MPOD Racing Seats
    Sparco 4pt Harnesses
    Custom Dual Exhaust (Probably just makes the car louder, or a 5 hp boost)
    Diamond Plated Steel Floormats
    Autoloc Lambo Doors
    I've taken my time to bold the modifications that increase performance, under proper circumstances at least.

    Some people could care less about speed though, I have a stock 2003 Dodge SXT Neon .. And i already get tickets as it is now. But it looks good with the kit, rims, lights and everything. Even though its slow i dont need all that speed. Wouldnt mind it, but not a neccessary thing. haha and yes it does have a cold air intake on it.... =P ...

    I'm not surprised, but to each his own. It's your car, not mine.

    I think you've done well to modify your car, it might not be to all tastes, but it's certainly individual.

    And good luck on a Safe return from the Hell Hole that is Iraq ATM.

    15 hp ? Try nothing 2 or 3 hp MAX . Under certain conditions it maybe adds 2 to 3 hp at the flywheel but a K&N is just there for the noise mostly. It does make the engine have a more "impressive" sound.

    I never thought I would meet the guy that bought my rims. You got a good deal on them that is for sure. You have seen the car in person before I have. Brent has been hooking it up for me while I have been gone. He said a lot of people have been stopping by there and asking about it. Are you in Kinston or just around there?

    just for being a soldier and serving us you just went way to the top of my book thank you

    car looks good, although the spoiler could be alittle smaller and the rear could be lowerd more

    other than that nice car i hope you have fun with it

    If i was a marine, being compared to a guy in the air force in korea, i would be pissed off right now. The Marine corp works sooo much harded than anybody in the air force, trust me.

    If i was a marine, and i got a few mintues of free time on the internet, i would not waste my time on ucp, i would be talking to family and close friends. Does that not seem rational to anyone?

    one more point...how did he get a hold of the picture of the car? If he is using any computer, its certainly the property of the the Marine's. So why would they let him save anything (useless to them), on their computer, and attach it on ucp?

    I'm not saying he's not a marine or not in Iraq, but some things here seem a bit odd.

    First there is no comparison between the Air Force and the Marine Corps.

    Second all of my friends and family are asleep. The friend that I would call is in Iraq too. Plus I call them every night when it is around 1100-1200 there and 1900-2000 here.

    Third we have access to the internet obviously. We have email accounts that people can send emails to. Family and friends can send pictures. You can save whatever you want on your computer as long as it is not porn or shit like that. Plus if I couldn't save it on my computer I have a thumb drive that I can use. My sponsor sent the pics and I posted them.

    I live in New Bern, but i drive to the Colony Tire in kinston because they have been alot cheaper than most places recently. And yes it was a very sweet deal on the rims, didnt expect to find those at such a cheap price. I went up there the other day to see the lambo doors. I was up there about 4 months ago and the lambo doors werent on, so i had to go back up to check on it while i picked up some StreetGlow underbody lights. Very sweet ride, U will definetly enjoy it when you get back. Hope you stay safe and get home safely.
