Cash is very limited... College is a drain on the wallet otherwise I would do the heads and cam at same time.

This is a future plan anyway, maybe 3-6 months
Thanks

HP is the heads.........thats where you need to spend the money!

Heads can pick up alot but the cam IMHO is the brains. Idle and streetability have alot to do with the cam but it is an entire package.
