Sent from my mind
Ok, let's be realistic about it then. In 2003, the Evo cost $30K, and there weren't many shops in GA that knew how to mod it. Additionally, they all charged an arm and a leg then on them. Basically, your $5K wouldn't get you what it will now.
If you want to play the game of getting a 2003 now, and then dumping in $5K, you can go a lot faster now.
