Next Upgrade?

Looking for ideas on my next upgrade. I was looking to do a cold air intake but not sure if its worth it because of low gains. So far I only have wheels and cat back. What else can I do that wont completely break my pockets...lol

This thread should give you a good idea of what is possible, worth it, etc.

Beyond that, what are you trying to achieve? Power? Handling? Reliability?

Kidding aside, Steve asked the right questions. Depending on what you are after there are various paths you can take. But don't forget to have fun doing it

Driver mod. Driver mod should always be first.

Learn how to drive the car well then you'll have a better understanding of what will make the car better.

Unless you're a poseur, in which case you should slam it hellaflush with strakes and underglow.
