How far would YOU go to finance that next mod? :)

So I was browsing through the local paper this morning and saw some ads for a couple of Pharmaceutical companies looking for 'healthy volunteers' etc, this is supposed to pay pretty well so I just wondered....

How far would <b>YOU</b> go to get that cash for the next mod on your motor :)

is it worth jekyll 'n hyde'ing yourself for 400bhp? :D

To be honest I don't think it pays all that well. It shouldn't do you any harm though :)

Having 400bhp will turn you into some sort of jekyll 'n hyde :D

I've got me balaclava and a banana in my pocket ready for when the banks open tomorrow to fund my engine rebuild :eek: :D

I'd create an owners club then become a trader on it! :thumbs:

Matt J and I know a friend who underwent this weird stuff for extra cash :) I think he had an allergic reaction to whatever they gave him, so he got some cash and bought a GTi-R. He's still slower than us tho ;)

well this is what I'm doing next;
turbo £1,800
intercooler £900
standalone ecu £900
uprated fuel pump £150
injectors £500
which comes to £4250 and does not include fitting! (may put some other bits in too, IF I go through with this, like a fuel surge tank, oil seperator and if I really want to go nuts, uprated engine internals), how far would I go to finance this? Well stay in some lame IT job doing unchallenging and unsatisfying work every day, getting called out to fix crap at 3am on a saturday morning, losing numerous weekends, getting stressed enough to affect my health, etc! Hmm, of course that doesn't include chromaflare paint and the Nismo/Blitz wheels, spare set of 17s with drag radials, new suspension, line lock, NOZ ... I definetly don't earn enough ...

Well there is no way I can save that amount without doing something stupid like blowing it on a deposit for a house or some other sensible application, so I guess I'll have to buy it in stages and have the frustration of looking at an HKS turbo that won't be on the car for another year :cry:

Indeed, i would say that the tests made him utterly stupid but he had already owned a nova gte prior to the tests, my conclusion is that he has been stupid from birth:D:D:D
