What First Upgrades Should I Get (Automatic)

K&N Typhoon Air Intake System $215
GReddy Exhaust System $529
Mazdaspeed Limited Slip 2 Way $989
PWR Aluminum Radiator $559
Mazdaspeed Lowering Springs $369
SR Pulley Kit $419
Veilside Body Kit $975

Yeah i know your like retard why do you have an Automatic. Well to tell you the truth the transmission was not my choice. My g-parents are the ones who bought the car for me. They said i had no word in the transmission because having a manual could be hazardous when learning to drive one. Although i have the automatic right now i am looking at trade in vaules to get the 6 speed.

Thanks for voting!

You do know that if you were to get that entire list you would gain about FIVE HP in total. I would spend any disposable income on suspension mods. Those will provide much more positive feedback than the others.

1ST!!! TRACKTIME!!! BETTER DRIVER = A BETTER CAR!!

2, Front & rear sway bars.
3, Springs AND Shocks
4, Wider tires
5, larger front & rear strut tower braces.

Spend your disposable income on getting an education and buying your own car, rather than driving your grandma's car.

Don't be a hater, stew. I wish I was lucky enough to have my gparents buy me car when I was a new driver. So would anyone else.
