Re: If you could only do 4 mods to your car, what would they be?

if you're on a budget, i'll leave out the body kits.

1.) drop (i have eibachs w/ toks)
2.) rsb (felt the difference right away)
3.) fstb (from courtesy only cost me less than $70 - so you can add this as a fifth item...)
4.) rims (when you need to replace tires)
5.) intake (i have the stillen hi-flow i'm very happy with)
6.) if you decide to wait until the tires are gone before getting rims, i'd get the y-pipe or muffler, whichever order you'd like.

FSTB, RSB, Springs, Brakes

I'm not a dragster, I'm a driver...
Handling and braking is more important to me than raw power. Of course, power would be nice, but would come in second after making sure the car can take the power. I don't want to lose control of a car or run out of brakes because my car has 350 horses but no brakes to stop it, etc.

Just my personal thoughts...

FSTB ??
RSB ??
CAI ??
UDP ??

Thanks to all.

Well since Im gettin a max soon and I get to start the modding all over again, i was wondering where to start, so I ask you all, if you could only do 4 mods to your car, what would they be? I dont want to hear everyone say SC or turbo either. Please take into account certain economic and monetary situations. So far I think I would do something like:
[list=1][*]lowering springs/struts[*]tint[*]stereo upgrade[*]y pipe[/list=1]

Lets hear from you people!


Supercharger
exhaust upgrade
springs
brakes
