HOLY CRAP!!! LOL 
....PWND, I havent seen anybody here get like this before! its quite amusing.
I really wanna see kargoboy eat this thread, lol, It might be good on a salad, maybe in a soup or on a sandwhich, depends on what your in the mood for!
And he obviously has a diferent mentality than most of us, we like our cars for what they are, and most of us just want a little extra to make it special, granted most wouldnt mind having the fastet protege and what not, but hes looking for the "super custom get in magazine look" so we'll have to accept that!
P.S. Matty, "working on cars since before he had pubes" that made me chuckle lol.

So...you're 16 now...and you've been working in a car shop for 4 years...that would've made you what? 12 correct? So you are telling me (and I'm quoting you here....yah look up genius.) WTF could you possibly learn at 12 about working on cars? Did you get the bitch boy duties and have to clean up the shop and tools and the grease off. Seriously, I don't know who you are trying to impress or fool for that matter. I'm 23 and I think I have a fairly good grasp on car knowledge...but I don't go around acting like I do. & I don't come across to ppl as a Billy Bad *** when ppl inquire about my ideas or intentions. Granted, I'm open to constructive criticism...and no matter how ugly it may come across...we are helping you out. You also stated that "....money is no object....". You fool, I laugh in your face at that stupid comment. At 16, where the hell are you going to get an unlimited amount of funding? You can tell me you're rich...but I won't believe you...because you drive an old school Mazda and you've been working hard labor since you were 12 (which is illegal BTW). Now, ask most of the guys here, me for one about money and cars. I'll just use me...others can pipe in. I'm a 23 y.o with a steady paying job and raises and *bonuses* every year...plus I have another job on the side. My first job, I bring in around $2,9k after taxwes every month, the 2nd job I bring in about $1k a month...I rent a townhouse and I make 2 car payments plus insurance on both. I have to also pay renters insurance. Factor in: groceries, gas, maintenance, utilities, incidentals, play around money, bills and then some....there's not much left over. Oh..throw in one gf who loves to purchase Mary Kay...yah...money dwindles really fast child. Maybe you don't notice it now, shoot, I didn't when I was a kid...but you've got it good under your parents roof. After ALL that and then you try to factor in a twin turbo CUSTOM set up??? It's not reasonably possible unless you want to sacrifice your social life. And I know as a teenager, I lived for the "now" and dreaded the "later" aka consequences. I wanted to go out and hang w/the crew at the beach and bang as many chics as I could....You're willing to do that & go into debt?? LOL!!!
Hey guy...point is, you can't bullshit a bullshitter. I (& most of us) weren't born yesterday.
But just because I'm the smart *** that I am...I'll add this:
You've been
Regards,
Phil
