i mean, thats a great idea. the only problem is i am going to get a loan for a car. there is no way that a bank is going to give me a loan for a car, money for a new engine (is the engine already in it not working?!?!), and a turbo setup.

thats why im looking for a car already put together. although your idea would definatly be the best.
