So I got a new job a couple weeks ago. Got my first check yesterday and I am going to be able to save up for it quick so i'm wondering would a 3sgte swap still be decent on gas? I'll be driving an average of 35 miles a day but want something more fun to drive.

that is pretty much that one thing why i havent done the 3s yet, stinkin inflating gas prices. We got the highest in the whole nation, if I was bankin' more dough then I'd have no problem. My commute to work is about 25miles and its all mountain/beach area driving so there is NO way my foot is gonna go easy

But you gotta also think what do you really mean by "worth it" This post has been edited by 808celica: Mar 7, 2012 - 2:10 AM -------------------- I don't normally drive fast, but when I do its on a curvy section of this island
