The need for speed.... WHY and what KIND!!

Yo!! I am sitter here going over the mods I plan on doing to my 06 MCS. and it hits me... there are a lot of guys looking for power... "it it a Gotta Have that wizbang" cause it is cool?? Or a " Gotta out power that guy on the straights" ( even though I cant drive the curves?) or maybe a bragging point!! " I have XX amount of HP!!". Seems here on NAM, there are all types.. yes??

SOOoooo.... categorize yourself.. cool??

ME.. straight line and heavy curves!! Probably never see a track, although it would be fun!! I like constant HP, thru the entire rpm range, keeping the cost to what works, and dont really like opening the hood, unless looking for something in the dark up in a tree, and also any add'l power on demand IF the need is there... and do it on a $3000- $3200.00 or less budget!! Of course stay under the HP/Tq destroy the drive train limits!! 245-260 HP.

and you.........................................??

Just me........................................
