If you know what you are doing you can get a megasquirt. They are a make it your self and program it your self stand alone fuel computer. Total cost of one is about $200 or so. I have a friend who is currently assembling one. Son once he gets it running we will see how it goes.
As foar as moding goes, there are also nuts like me.
I currently hava a 95 neon for daily driving. It gets great gas milage and was dirt cheep. I have only put seats from a beter trim neon in it to make my fat ass feel better and I put a different neon muffler on it to give me about 1-3 hp more. It was all I needed and wanted because I live in a very hilly county so the extra 3 hp was all I needed for the up hil climbs.
I also have a 79 ford LTD lowrider. It has hydros and the whole 9 yards. I am currently cutting the top off and learning how to do body work on it. This car makes absolutl no practical sence but it is just fun. Fun, fun, fun. Another reason I have this car is becasue it is the cheapest of all my car wants.
I also want a truck (71 chevy) to haul cars with. That is my stuff.
I want a 91 eagle talon to do hornet class dirt track racing with.
I would like a turbo'd neon just for the hell of it.
I want another talon for street use. I had one and sold it, insurance sucked.
I want to restore a 70 camaro and put a twin turbo 350 in it.
I am just a car nut. I really enjoy working with my hands. I love powerfull cars, but it is not a penis envy thing. Hel I am perfectly happy driving a neon. For me it is almost like a self satisfaction thing. I can look at a car I worked on and say, see I did that. And the time spent working on cars with friends is pricless.
