Project Nana: 09.13.07 Spent a Little More Than Expected

During the phase of my engine rebuild, I was informed that I had a clogged Cat. I was not getting much power and the car felt EXTREMELY Sluggish! In addition to that, I have mismatching Muffler Tips. I knew I had to break in my engine ASAP and change my clogged cat. I thought to myself, if im gonna change the cat, might as well change the whole exhaust system. It will save time and money as a whole. Little did I know that changing the exhaust can lead to so many new purchases. I purchased the Apexi Dual N1 Exhaust, only to find out the day after that it only gives about 10-12 HP to the wheels. However, the Racing Beat REV-TII Exhaust produces a Whooping 59 HPgain. I was GREATLY dissapointed as a result, I searched high and low to get the Apexi Exhaust to as close to 59 HP as possible. This resulted in me buying the Racing Beat REV TII Downpipe and a Fuel Cut Controller. I thought I was done, until I found out that by using the Fuel Cut Controller, my stock boost gauge will no longer be accurate which will result in purchasing a new boost gauge. Unfortunately, I got laid off so the boost gauge will have to wait and my mods will come to a halting stop until i get a new better, stable job.
