I'm drooling over the APR exhaust kit, but wow... $2600.00 That's a lot of green. I wonder what kind of horsepower gains it's good for?

shouldnt need to spend much more than a grand for a 225 exhaust system. Get a 42dd downpipe and a decent catback and your golden.

So many people concentrate on increasing Hp without concern for improving the handling and braking in order to handle the added power. A Neuspeed 19mm rear sway bar should be your next mod. It will make the car handle more neutral in corners, you should then consider coilovers and a BBK somewhere not to far into the future. Having a bunch of Hp really only benefits you in a straight line. Making these cars handle more like a sports car through the twisties is a lot more fun than racing between stoplights.

its true..having a bunch of horsepower can benefit high power torque and will experience a better fuel economy with the efficient BBK performance parts. producing optimum horsepower, torque, and throttle response.
