hey whats up everybody? is is possible since ive had my 02 pro5 for 10,000 miles now, and havent changed the oil, plugs, etc. thats y its running bad (dumb ?? i know) and im only get 22 mpg?? You think after a good tune up, ill be getting 30 like i use to? i almost traded it in today, but i relized i like my cheap payments, so i think im going to buy intake exhaust header to satisfy my speed craving, you think that combo will make me happy? i was going to go turbo, but i dont think ill race or anything so it will be pointless. i just want it to sound and look fast? Any comments are welcome...
02 Running like crap??

i know, i know. i told myself when i baught this car i would do it every 3k miles like i should, but i drive it at work alot, and every week i say to myself to do it, but then i space it off. I want to go turbo, but i dont think i will, i dont think i need turbo to satisfy my speed needs, i think im just going to get the classic exhaust, intake, header.
uhhh ur oil will seriously make a diff, i sometimes go 1k over the 3k mark and dammm do i notice it and my car hates me for it so i stoped that badness and she runs like a clock. keep your perrrty white baby in good shape and she will thank you for it, ud be surprised i swear it has a mind of its own, sometimes its really fast and other times it sucks donkey dick but i love my white p5 and you should to, show it the respect
i shouldnt just say oil, do ur plugs and filter like ^^^^^

pil change deffinitly made a huge difference. i already am getting way more mpg so far, ordered new spark plugs too, and my wheels will be here tomorrow so ill have to get some pics, also have been working on my grill, still need to let dry for 3 days and buff it, then that will be done. ill have pics of everything asap
Not to be rude or anything, but this is why I will never buy a used car.
I think you will be happy with a header, intake, exhaust, as long as your not going turbo, if you wanna go turbo all the above is useless.
I changed a friend of mines oil after 13k and I just wanna say, it was nasty as hell, almost felt like telling her to come back in 500 miles so I could change it again.

How many miles are on the car? If its still running not as well you could always give seafoam a chance, I did mine today

Wow,I've been over on my oil changes but never that far. Good thing you had it changed. As for the performance thing make sure all you maintenance is up to date before you mod. It will only bring you more problems in the future if the small stuff isn't taken care of now.
