The D probably would be nice to keep seeing as how gas will probably continue to rise.

Do the employers raise wages for drivers to compensate gas prices some or no?

alright man..

Keep the d.. I would probably go turbo in your situation since it looks like you're just looking for more power and wont auto-x or road race. You're going to be satisfied with it after its done, AND you said you dont want to swap motors.

As far as suspension, get ground control sleeves and Kyb Agx's (if you're low on $), Tokiko Illuminas, or Koni Yellows (best option, but pricey). I have Agx's and it rides pretty smooth with very very little bouncing. You said you wanted your suspension like the car with the c8's, but if you're delivering pizzas, that's not going to work. Your front lip and oilpan are going to get taxed by speed bumps and large hills, so "dumping" your car isnt a great idea, plus you limit your suspension travel (= worse ride quality) by doing it. I would just go with a tasteful drop (2.5 or so) and be done..

and at the place I work, the owner refuses to increase the delivery charge.. our prices are high enough as it is :x

^you still have to pay tax either way

i offered to give my buddy 10000 double cheeseburgers for his poor mans type r and he said he would have done it just for the pictures. too bad mcdonalds would never know what hit them. i wonder what they would say if you rolled up in the drive thru and ordered 10000 double cheeseburgers and a diet coke?
