Default My X-mas gift for the Z???????

Well this is my situation...for my x-mas gift im giving myself a $1,000 limit without shipping costs included. I have a SRi and '06 clear corners. I'm here asking because i need some opinions from some fellow Z owners that know what talking about. I want speed...but then i also want some looks (kinds tired of stock). Anyways here is what im looking at. What combo would you pick? My characteristics = i tend to race fequently...i would say 1-2 times a week when i run into cars...but then here in Mcallen there are quite a few Z's and i want at least some details to stand out a bit (for now).

+ Performance+

-Motordyne MREV2 (@$400)
-Motordyne ISO 5/16 Spacer (@$250)
-Tanabe Super Medallion Hyper Exhaust (@$700)
-Tanabe Y-pipe (@$400)
-Some sort of HFC's(no test pipes), looked at UR HFC (@$460)

+Looks+

-Motorsport Daytona Spoiler (from theZstore) (@$230)
-Hotchkis springs (without sways) (@$150)

Get the MREV2 and spacer, then resonated test pipes ( trust me - no go on the HFC they burn out quick and no HP gain at all) so you'll have around 150 left for the springs............pm Darren at Intense he'll hook you up!

MOST DEF the MREV2 and spacer for great performance. Good thing you got a 06 Z 6MT for the MREV. And if not ... the medallion exhaust would be close second.

I just like performance to come first. I mod the exterior a little more when I can back up the looks.

i dont really like that exhaust and for the money i rather get the invidia or the t-pros if your going with that style for alot less but if your spending 700 get the greddy evo instead or something else the canisters on the tanabe have that raspy sound
