So summer is coming up and Im gonna have have some money to dump in my car. So which of these would you get 1st, 2nd...
1. GIAC Chip, but im running 17psi with the diode mod and lemmi so I wouldnt see alot of performance out of this..
2. Custom Exhaust, 2 magnaflow mufflers, but im not sure if i should do a TP, eventhough my state only scans for codes.
3. H&R springs, I dont know if i should get the shocks too, I got sport shocks, what do you guys think?
4. FMIC(cheap one, probably ebay)

I would do the suspension first; and definitely replace both springs AND shocks. After that, custom exhaust. I don't know about the TP; if you think it'll net you significant gains with the diode mod and (I'm assuming) a stock K03 turbo, do it. If it probably won't really help, wait until you go BT. Same for the FMIC - wait until you've got a serious turbo that stands to benefit from it.

I was thinking the same, only exhaust first. I thought you could do only springs if you have sport shocks?
Anyone else?

exhaust is like 300 maybe if you go custom and get it done at a shop and springs with shocks should hit right around 800. but my choice would be spring/shocks and get her a little closer to earth.

The springs and shocks are 678 and the exhaust will come out to about 500 with dual magnaflow mufflers and a tp. So they are kinda close. I guess im gonna paint my sport wheels and see how it looks but yea, I will probably go with the suspension. Will H&R sport springs eat through my tires?
