I think it would be worth the money though if you have the extra cash laying around, I would do it just to see how many people would accuse me of having some dumb ricer mod, and also to get the whole "WTF that's a fast alero" comments not many people would think of an alero being a boostable car.

Anything is boost-able, I once attempted to boost my moped, with a hair dryer, I maybe got a 1 hp gain, lol

yeah but around here people just wouldn't think of someone boosting something out of the norm, oh and you would likely get better gains with a leaf blower compaired to a hair dryer, but you would look rather stupid with either lol.
