Ok, so I will soon have 3000-3500 in cash to blow at AWE, I'm trying to decide how I want to spend it. My options are pretty much listed below, it's just which combination of them i want to get

AWE Exhaust 929
Brembo 238mm BBK 2595
xenon ecodes housings 620 + 200-300 for balasts/bulbs from some place else
H&R sping bilstein shocks 669
FMIC 945
K04 Turbo kit 1700
GIAC FX 900


I will be getting the AWE exhaust for sure, so I guess 2-2.5k to blow.

I'm leaning towards the Brembos since I'm pretty happy with the ride height as it is now. The K04 seems to be a waste as I'll probably go bigger with the next lump sum of cash i can **** away on the car and I'll be picking up the SS on Wednesday of this week


Opinions?

 

get the GTRS Elim w/ Revo Software and Borla/Apr Exhuast!

The GTRS w/ REvo = $2900
Borla Exhuast - 670 Shipped.

Or you could get a custom 3" Turboback exhuast.. or the APR exhaust (2.5") for $900

DONE!

Do I get a cookie!

 

Nope, no cookie "in cash to blow at AWE" I'll be doing some work there and if i take cash instead of taking a credit or exchange for parts I'll end up spending the money on more adult things like bills :P

BTW, the 3 APR exhausts I've seen look like crap. The welds look like they were done by 12 year olds.

 

just wait i think the AWE GT28R kit will come out eventually in our life time

 

talk to tomritt about making your own FMIC...it would save you a few hundred bucks...if it were me, i'd get the exhaust, xenon e-codes, and a nice set of coilovers (i like H&Rs)...you'll still have a little left over after that...SS brake lines are only about 150/set and they'll make more of a difference than a 3k dollar BBK

 

Too many supporting mods straight off the bat to go with something like that, I had thought about it. I'd be looking at 5k or so once you factor in FMIC, Exhaust and the turbo kit. Not to mention the stock clutch would need to be done pretty soon after so throw another grand on to that.

 

befor u look into a BBK do ur wheels clear them

 

AWE Tuning is listed as a PES dealer. Talk to AWE about getting a PES T28 kit.

It'll be expensive but you'll have a nice setup.

 

Yep, the 328mm kit *should* clear the 17's I have for winter and my normal 19's will fit no problem. I havent bothered measuring yet, it's been way too cold and I'm still in vacation mode

I guess I'm either going to go

FMIC, Exhaust and K04 and chip for my wifes R32

or

Exhaust and Brembos

or

ecodes, exhaust, FMIC, stage 3 Clutch & flywheel. (in prep for bigger turbo in a 6 months or so)

OR I guess I could drop all the cash into a Supercharger for the R32

 

HEH I can only imagine the price. I'll talk to them when I'm there on Wednesday.

Regardless of what i get, are you up for an install fest when I get them? I'll bring the beer!
