So i got a job lined up today as an intern on a tug boat this xmas getting payed 200$ a day for a 20 day hitch, so ill have around 4k to spend...on my car Im thinking about skipping the bull**** and goin straight to the modular powerhouse mongoose kit with the vortech s/c. The thing is im torn between doing this or going the n/a route mostly because id like to get some aftermarket cams in so i can get that lope. Right now i think im just gonna do the s/c but my question is if i did s/c the car, would it be beneficial to go ahead and do the exhaust at the same time, im thinking maybe bbk lt's and a mac catback, and from what i know it would be good to get 3" exhaust since im running forced induction, am i right?
Why not save it? It would seem that you don't have a regular job. Ok, now that the sensible me is out of the way I would definitely go with the mongoose kit!
Are you looking to get into the Tug Boat crew business perminently? Its a good paying gig if you can get it. My dad worked on a tug boat when i was a kid...he went straight from the Marines (Vietnam) to working as a welder on a tug...he loved it and made alot of money. Its something a young guy can do while he doesn't have a family yet. You can save a ton of money since your on the boat for a few months at a time and everything is free. Good luck with that...

well im graduating school in augest then ill start working as a mate on ships, basicly i have the choice of working where i want, i could work on oil tankers or cargo ships or i could work what we call brown water which would be tugs, supplly vessels and that sort of thing. Im going to end up working brown water mostly because i want to be able to hav ea social life and be home more, you can work 2 weeks on and 10 off if you work brown water versus working 3 months on and 2 months off on blue water (BIG ships) So yea im getting an intern on this tug over xmas, and no im not going to save it i want a s/c i have plenty of time to save money after i graduate
Man I wish I could spend every penny I made on a car. I couldn't do a job like that, won't you miss your stang? Any women on them boats? Might want to save that money for porno mags and lube. And.... .....saving money after you graduate.... ..... harder than you think.
Mongoose kit ftw! And yes, you can do the exhaust at the same time, or enjoy the new power, then when you want a little more fun and something new, get the exhaust done. That's what I'm doing!
My buddy used to bang this hawt chick while her husband was out for weeks on the barges. Just something to think about... Also, do not spend all your money on mods. Life has some unpleasant surprises in store for you and they will all require money, lots of money.
