There is something to be said about cost. I have had my car for 12 years and 8 or so of it was may only car. I did 90%of the work myself and on the weekends so I could drive it to work on Monday, aside from engine build and paint. It's cool to be different and for me the road was long because I started it when I was in college and saved money for every mod. Now with adult responsibilities and money it's still a ballencing act. That said near 300 wheel horsepower on 12psi is a blast vs. stock
