Ive got about 500 to part with but need advice on what to buy. In your exp. what gave you the most bang for your buck. Ive got an intake already, and im waiting on exhaust because im definitely going to go turbo with a year or so.


thanks for any input

If you don't want to replace your tires just yet get a front and rear swaybar, heavy duty sway bar links and the anti-lift kit. This should be ~$500. This will sort out your suspension and should make it even more fun to drive :)

just my my $.02

Depending on your mechanical aptitude/ level of help available. Consider the Cobb cams. $500 if you install em yourself. Awesome.

Next on the list is a swaybar.
Short shift kit (with bushing)
Endlinks F/R
maybe tires.

Without a doubt, tires and a rear sway bar. You will be suprised by how much these two items will help the handling of your car.

nice set of Bridgestone RE730's for summer or Bridgestone Blizzak WS-50 for winter, plus a cusco rear sway. when i add something for power i try to add something for suspension.

swaybar definitely... or new tires. We already handle well but with minor upgrades you can handle great.

he's got the DOHC so Cobb Cams would be $800 not including installation. if you're refering to bang for the buck as mods that would include handling...then yes, a sway bar would be a good place to go.

Send away for Cobb cams, and have them shipped here to me. I'll test it out for you, tell you if it's any good.
