Default I think my first mod was bilsteins/eibachs/0.5 kmac

Obviously much improved handling. My rear shocks had gotten funky so the overall ride improved as well. If I could only have one mod that would be it.

Default cars are slower that zhit...#1=chip, #2=chip..then exhaust,>

FMIC, intake (maybe)...probably exhaust after chip. Then, Steve's got stuff that sqeeze even more ****s and giggles from the oven.
Thats if the poop is not to your liking.

Some start with handling first...or brakes. I think brakes come last (yea)because the oem's are very good. (Safety kids please hold the sensationalist dribble....I know "brakes are important". But the originals are fine for the modest mods of chip+. My StopTechs are not really urgently required unless big turbo stuff.

Handling stuff is required! But....you've already spent $$$$ so far. Await chapter #2

Default Borla Exhaust. Sounded great, don't think it did much at the time, but the freer flow came in handy

once other mods came on board.

Default Bilstein HDs.

Result: much better hadling and probably
5 or 10mph avg. speed on my favorite mountain
twisty. I did a chip next (well, and a DV
sometime), but I highly recommend suspension
first, if you're into handling at all.

Default Think about chip/dv, exhaust, and sway bar right away for your car.

Then you can decide from there how "extreme" you want to go. Just remember, modding is a non-recoverable entertainment/hobby expense.
