Hey Mike...I thought you would say the intake for sure for a sale But you're going to get the sale anyways in the future! A definite great value for the CGS Intake from SoCal Keep the price slashing and free shipping going! Thanks Rod "Man"

my first big purchase were rims and tires. Everything else came after that. I'm trying to do looks/performance mods at the same time.

If you already have the rims, what good will they be if you get the CGS? Get the tires for the rims!!! Then start saving for the CGS.

Okay, now let me be the stick in the mud. I'm old school and I would do the performance goodies first[actually what I did] then do the other stuff. Bigger tires and wheels means more weight which, in turn, means a slower vehicle. Me, I'm trying to go the other way.
