So I like to upgrade slowly and be a savvy shopper when it comes to my car parts. I shop for used and cheap deals lots of the time when looking for upgrades. Car is a 02 ALH with 195k on it currently in mostly stock form. My plan is to eventually clean and upgrade parts as I can until its time for bigger ticket items (i.e. Turbo, downpipe, injectors, new clutch). I currently have a 11mm IP installed after my stock took a crap around 186k.
I have been keeping my eyes open for new parts on the cheap and was looking to do some supporting mods. I have a guy who bartered a PD intake and race pipe for cheap. I would like to clean this up nicely and put it on the car. I also been looking at getting one the IloveTacoTaco SMIC and I have a 1.8t pancake pipe I got for like $4 I would like get hooked up on the car.
Is it acceptable to upgrade these items as supporting mods now and do the bigger items down the line and tune then? It just harder to plop down a fat sack of cash for everything at once. Not going to effect anything negatively if I do these mods now, and tune later... right?
Cheers
(down the line I have a set of pp764 injectors I am getting from a buddy for free, Id like to get a deal on a 17 turbo down the line, and probably a buzzken downpipe in the furture)
