You can buy the Koyo for 315 on ebay. So some of his stuff isn't out there. The freebies don't normally happen though. There are always deals to be had, so don't put him down because he found stuff for cheap and you payed retail for everything.
PFC's with commander go for about 700, right? He can make a crappy loud exhaust for 300 without resonator and it will sound ok and loud. I meant to say nice fitting IC, not rad. You can do things for really cheap but you get what you pay for. My guess is he will do everything himself cheap, mess it up, then we'll see a cheap and poorly put together fd on Ebay.
It may cost more to have things done for you but my fd is running at 100% about 99% of the time.

Yo Tmoney, you might want to save yo chedder for fixing your car instead of going single turbo.
I just read some of your posts, and if your "car idles at 4000 rpm, spits out a bunch of white smoke, and shakes so bad it feels like it's going to fall apart." you might want to slow down. Good luck, You're gonna need it

Ya know, I was going to make some suggestions on how you could save SOME money, and still reach your goals, but after reading the last two **** spewing posts you put out, it would be a cold day in hell before I even think about offering any advise on your car. Now on the subject of you though I will offer this advise:

there were two groups who tried to help you, but because one troll popped up, and pissed you off you immediatley started trying to bag on the people that were trying to help you.

you need to

a. grow up

b. use the search button

and lastly

when someone offers an opinion such as

"To go with a good single you are looking at about a base of 10,000$, maybe that should put things into perspective."

or

"Yep! If you're stock, or even remotely close to stock right now, then you'll need a LOT of supporting mods to be able to pull that type of power on a single."

they are simply tellin you the truth from their persepctive, if you have already done the supporting mods, then yes, it will not cost you as much. You might be able to save some money by shopping around, but that does not mean that they are wrong, they are simply right from a different perspective.

try to look at it from all perspectives, not just your own.

you need to learn to ignore the trolls that pop up every now and then, and concentrate on the good scoop you can get, but when you get defensive and start lashing out, you simply anger all concerned.
