really, see its hard to get a straight answer with those, after i graduate and get a full time job i'm getting a 2.3 turbo and building the **** out of it and i was going to throw one of those in for ****s and giggles, anywho was it worth the like 95 dollars, i mean i guess it depends on your engine but it probly helps if you have a free flowing exhaust and intake in the first place, dose it feel like it has more hp?

Part of the reason is because I am doing half-days this year so I only go to school for 3 hours. I get home a 10am and I only work 3-4 days a week for 4 hour shifts. I have a lot of free time and as the year went on I realized I wasn't doing anything with people anymore because I didn't have contact with them at school anymore. So after that I stepped up and I'm trying to do as much stuff as I can now.

Haha I basically asked a friends girlfriend if any of her friends wanted to go to prom since they are Sophomores. I didn't even have to ask, we just got setup. Having some money and the Camaro helped to though hahahaha. I probably could have got a hot a** college age escort for under $2,000 though hahahaha.

well jordan, i dont think it gained hp just maybe freed it up if that makes sense. just like an e fan conversion sort of thing. but i guess it could gain hp because i got a k&n filter, with the airbox mod with the throttle body spacer makes it kinda act like a cold air intake but without the hard piping. ha good question though, it was just throttle response in my opinion. but i guess back on topic lol, id have to agree with evil clown lol

He makes so much sense it's scary.

If someone rich is unhappy then clearly they are doing it wrong. Even if you are feeling crappy one day just go online and open up your bank account, problem solved. Or buy a wave runner.

Okay, I seriously should not admit this .. but I read the thread title as "P - ROM" and thought it sounded like some kind of cool computer chip I could add to my Ranger for increased power or something! You know, like, "can the Ranger handle a P ROM" chip. Dang am I disappointed. No offense to the prom attendees, but my prom was thirty years ago ... I would have been much more excited to find out there was a P ROM chip out there!!!

don't be afraid to say your parents paid for your stuff.
my parents were rich before they're divorce, they paid for all of my crap in high school.
its not that i didn't have a job. but now that i'm in college, its nice to have money you didn't spend in high school.

HAHAH No I did actually pay for that. I work for $7.55 at Dunkin' Donuts 20 hours a week. I do the minimum wage thing just like every other high school kid. I'm just poking fun at Josh because he was saying that my Mom pay for my stuff. My parents pay for all my big stuff that they feel obligated to pay for but I pay for everything else. As a family we're well off and I'm not "ashamed" of it, I benefit from it just like anyone else would in the same situation. I pay for all my own entertainment stuff, car stuff, and everything extra. Half the time I don't tell my parents about things that need paid for or ask them for money for stuff and just cover it myself. It's satisfying knowing I can pay for my own things. I do wish I would have never found R/F though, I'd have a hell of a lot more money saved up from my high school job if I wouldn't have spent it on the Ranger lol.

I didn't know jack about cars/trucks/vehicles or anything before I came on here. I wrecked my truck and had to do a new bumper and fender and that's where I got started with the mod bug haha. First I wanted to do a 4x4 valence with fogs, then I saw some Rangers had rounded mirrors instead of flags so I got some of those. And then I did my clear corners. And the rest is history.

On topic:

I'm getting excited for Prom, 3 weeks away and the Camaro will be delivered in 2!!!

I rolled up to prom in a 1990 Chevy Corsica. Or as it was dubbed the Pimpsica. All that matters is whos in the passenger seat, and possibly in the backseat/bed.
