Tires, rear sway bar upgrade, intake, exhaust, WRX brakes. Maybe even in that order.

The order of my mods on my 02 TS is:

wheels and tires - huge difference

intake - noticable performance and sound

exhaust - noticable performance and sound

20mm rear sway bar - noticable difference

headers - performance and sound

short shifter

wrx brakes - performance

if you're looking for sound, go with a nice catback. It's always there, as opposed to an intake. Which only really gets noticable when you go WOT.

if u just want ur car to sound a little better and not be so noisy, u can just get a intake (i have ganzflow. still uses the stock airbox. its just a pipe that goes from the air box into the fenderwell area thingi. doesn't make that air sucking noise like aem.) and a wrx muffler.

but honestly, to make ur car more fun (since our cars arn't the fastest thing in the word) i would work on suspension and tires. plus the stock tires suck anyways, so might as well get better tires that grip better and last longer.

I tried searching for TS mods, but didn't come up with any good info, :-(
I do plan on chcnging my tries and wheels, but I just didn;t find anything for a good price yet.
For other mods, I'll have to wait a while, but hopefully if we get aqquainted more you will provide me with a few good addies :-0
