You built one heckava nice ride there. What's a package like that cost... and how long did it take you?
 
thanks man! what do you mean by package? supercharger? air? and the car has been a work in progress for the last 2-3 years

@Christian12 Everybody knows this doesn't happen overnight.

It took "2-3 years", you said, transforming a diamond in the rough into
a 'Perfectly Polished MANMACHINE!' (Notice how i capitalize everything during Pacific Time Happy Hour)

So....
1.) What took the most time; what took the least time?
2.) How many hours (in general) did each project take?
3.) In general, what was the worst mod, what was the easiest mod?
3a.) How many BEERS did each mod take....the real question!)

We all know how complicated this gets....but you've essentially taken a plain Jane Si and turned it into
a "Masterpiece".

Tell us how.... so we, too, can play the same game...okay?

sorry i didn't respond to this sooner.. had to do some thinking lol,

1. i would say what took the most time would either be the air suspension or the supercharger as there is a lot that goes into them, the least time i would say the basic like exhaust. but all in all the most time was to finance my self to afford this without worrying about it and not putting my self in any financial risks..
2. i couldn't tell you how many hours each took because its hard but the major ones like air, supercharger can take around 8-12 hours each and there were some simple mods like shift knob or the random accessories that took no time from a couple minutes to hours.. but i would think there is 100's of hours put into the car as i like to tinker with things.
3. I would say my worst mod i have ever done was cheaper end coilovers... never said this but the pervious set of coils clunked made noises ride was junk, didn't handle that well or anything.... the easiest mod would have to be exhaust! (well kind of... had the skunk2 before and that would be on par for worst mod lol)
3a. how many beers... gotta say alot lol whats the fun without them!

i hope i can somewhat answer your question as its a hard one. I think, the real answer how to play on someones level is time. Nothing can be done overnight even the "baller" "game changers" or whatever people are calling them these days spend so much time just trying to perfect it.

thanks everyone for the love that has been given to my car over the past little bit! truly puts a smile on my face and the car is for sure no where near to be finished :)!
