How $2200 in mods will only cost $600, no make that $387
prolly sell my car in 2 years, sell my mods on ebay.
This is what can be done with careful purchasing.........
Item, original price, ebay projected
SSR type c, $1260, $900
Unorthodox Pulley, $240, $100
Odyssey Battery, $115, $60
Spare SSR Type c, $315, $300
PRM Intake, $240, $125
spare wheels additionally saved me $60 X 2 swapping snow tires back an forth on stock wheels.
* Note I got lucky with the SSR Type C. Closeout prices at tire rack where cheap, now it seems you have to go thru Tanabe dealers and pay $440 per wheel. That helps them go regularly used in nice condition for $900.
My 5th SSR (spare) so far is brand new still in the box, so if somebody crunches one, and badly needs one, they will gladly pay $300

Whoa, a major epiphany
forget the $600, only cost me $387
as my combination of mods have netted me 2 mpg improvement, so in 50k miles I will save $213 in fuel costs.
