Default What's gonna be your future mods?

1. Paint my engine cover.
2. Lambo doors (love that GT Diablo Lambo doors for XFIREX that's on ebay now).
3. Interior illumination (Blue to match the sills).
4. Install my DVD/nav unit and possibly with the rear view mirror monitor.
5. Replace wheels with forged wheels like OZ (TireRack).
6. Renntech Stage 4 (if I win the lottery)!

DVD/Nav going in soon Kenwood KVT-M700 with 7" monitor
Xbox in trunk connected to 7" monitor
rear view license plate frame camera connected to 7" monitor
Startech front spoiler
Custom rear spoiler lip
Hopefully some sort of power chip if it doesn't mess the car up.

Already done the Mopar rear diffuser and Eibach pro kit which transformed the car!

Also, I was looking at those sweet *** doors on Ebay as well. For some reason on the Xfire those doors seem to fit the character of the car. And what I like about those is that they don't swing outwards on the upward travel. Nice.

Cyril, where did you get those cold air intakes, and do they make a difference? Would it void my warranty? It looks bad as*!

1. Install iPod Interface.
2. HIDs.
3. Mopar Rear Diffuser.
4. Eibach Springs and Spacers.
5. 2 8" Clarion Monitors mounted on sun visors (already have the hardware).
6. ECU upgrade.

That's all for now, does anybody want to give me a cash advance or should I just forward the list to Santa?

The monitors belong to my parents. They were installed in their Pacifica before they traded it for the Mag R/T. I'm going home this weekend, I will get some details for you then.

My list is "if all goes well." The Crossfire's lease is up in about a year and 8 months...I will probably buy it out in the end, and then I would keep it until I am settled with my job. If I keep it, I'll modify it like crazy. I also love the Elise, and the Evo. If buying out the Crossfire and modifying it costs too much, I'll either buy the Elise or Evo. I really want the Elise, but the fact that it is not so practical might stray me towards the Evo. We will see what happens.

Kinda weird that the EVO would be more practical.

Hmmm. Why wouldn't the Evo be more practical than both the Crossfire and the Elise?

-3 more seats
-more trunk space
-usable cup holders
-four doors
-all-weather capability (all wheel drive)

I would love to discuss more about my situation, but I think that we are "straying" too far away from the thread topic.

That's what forums are for. Thread Hi-jacking.

Yes it would be. And they both get around the same gas mileage. The evo ain't that bad at all. Just the lag can get ya sometimes.

I think that I like the lag...you could get good gas mileage if you keep the engine off boost, and when you need the extra power, well, it is there! I must say, that a couple of weeks ago, an Evo MR pulled in front of me (with exhaust) and started to accelerate briskly...being that the Crossfire has such good mid-range pull, the Evo could not put space between us after he floored it...he couldn't hit max turbo boost, so I stayed with him all the way down a straight away...I exited the road with a smile on my face.
