Those that are new to 914's generally tend to overspend.
Example: a cleaned/flow tested fuel injector ($12-$15 for the service from reputable shop) is in no way noticeably different from a brand new $250 fuel injector. So, $60 vs $1,000 for a set that does the exact same thing. And that's just one gross example. Granted, when I first got into 914's I would have thought new injectors is the only way to go. Oh, if I only knew then what I know now... On the other hand, $1,000 means different things to different folks... But, a politician once said "a billion here, a couple of billion there, and before you know it you're talking about REAL MONEY!". (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |
