No, tbunder, you're the idiot. You are looking for the impossible. Free mods that don't take any time and don't require any work. You're not going to find that. Someone mentions a free mod that should offer decent performance, and you turn him down. What more do you want? Want me to tell you how to make a turbo out of an empty milk jug and some toothpicks? Perhaps you have heard the saying, "Speed costs money, how fast do you want to go?" Or maybe, "You can't get something for nothing." Basically, any modifications you do will cost you money or take some mechanical apptitude. The cheapest mod you'll probably find is a drop in K&N air filter for your stock air box. Sure, it costs you $40 or whatever for the filter, but you should notice a slight increase in power. Next would be cutting out your resonator and replacing it with a straight pipe. If you have a hack saw, some straight exhaust pipe, and a couple exhaust clamps you can do it yourself in your driveway with a little time. There's two suggestions, take them or leave them. But don't come to the forums asking people to do the impossible for you, and then turn them down then they do it. ------------------ Perry Contour-L Admin 96 GL perryw@bellsouth.net

Blunder, it doesn't surprise me that you would come back swearing and cussing and offending me or others with your childish antics. You obviously aren't even 18 yet. You have got to be kidding me. You came on here with the most retarded/insane question. Some guys took the time out to let you know of some things they did and you come back calling one of the contributors a doorknob? And then call me a MF? How dare you. What kind of list do you think this is, you nut? This is an adult forum. Granted some of use disagree with each other on issues, but they are worth the bandwidth to debate...but your nonsense is an abomination to this entire list!! This is not the kiddy page. Go crawl back into bed with my mommy? Sheez, graduate high school first.
One of the moderators shoudl DELETE this whole thread and not just LOCK it. That way, when someone looks in the archives your stupidity won't even be seen or waste OURs and Lance's precious space.
The fellas came on here to help you with some ideas and you just totally disrespect them. You're the kind of moron that nobody wants here. Leave, go home, go back to school, go drive somewhere else in the car that your parents bought you. You're a disgrace to even be a member here? What have you contributed? Nothing but disrespect... Shame on you.

Yes I KNOW this is not a performance mod, but it's the only thing that I have done that didn't cost me anything. The loose headlamp fix:  But in a way, it IS a performance mod, it helps the headlamps "perform" as they are not shaking and vibrating any more!  ------------------ P.

tbunderthe only really cheap performance mod i can think of is huge in the rice community it's called stickers put them all over your tour so we know your an idiot and we don't have 2 let u open your mouth 2 prove it.1 more inexpensive mod drill a hole in the airbox and attach a hose run the hose into the car then stick the hose as far in your ear as possible and you'll have ram-air with all the high pressure airt in there u should be smokin the tires right off your tour thanx rollin

tbunder, you do an excellent job of encapsulating why I don't visit the forums anymore. Now I only come to threads pointed out by friends of mine. I used to enjoy these forums, reading almost every thread with incredible enthusiasm. Then posts like yours showed up, ruining what was once a tight-knit group of enthusiasts.
Have you lost your mind? We're all supposed to be friends here, car enthusiasts, contour enthusiasts, whatever. I don't ever remember some of the old schoolers posting such ignorant accusations 'that you all must be from canada'. Some of us have been here for four years. Mind yourself.
I don't know where you get off copping an attitude like you do. Your posts are useless, and all you're doing is wasting the time of the 2500 registered users who come here in good spirits to learn about the CDW-27 platform. If you have any good conscious at all, clean yourself up. If you can't do that, then leave. This site is a contour enthusiasts group, not a name calling group.
Where, oh where is our beloved ICBM Launcher?

How the **** did this thread degenerate so quickly? Has the world gone mad!  If I didn't know better, I'd swear this was one of those nasty Grand Am threads. This is bull****, and it's chasing fellow CEG'ers like migalush away.  Wouldn't be suprise if Kommander Rara locks this one up!  ------------------ P.
