read it
then
do whatever you want-its your car not ours. Exhaust, intake, popcharger, spacers, are all good places to start.

People usually start with intake, exhaust, and rims. What will you do?

You won't feel it less with an exhaust. I prefer induction such as an intake first over the exhaust. It's almost a common order; intake, exhaust, rims.

Get a Stillen. If you want to spend big money, an ARC complete with the box. AEM dual inlet? Puke.

Don't worry about anything like that unless you're no longer N/A.

If you notice, there are filters on the box. Yes, it does come with piping. You just have to search what stores carry ARC. It's real good quality stuff. It's expensive as well.

Sounds like you just need to go over to the tech area and read up on mods for a while dude. Theres a ton of great info, and can learn alot.

buy this
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Cars-...=1218486736677

sell Z.


seriously, have you never been on a board before? the "What mod should I do first" is possibly one of the most commonly asked questions, which in turn means it will irritate people beyond belief.

but here:
Sticky rubber is always good, and driving school can't hurt.

Plenum spacer, drop in filter, and HFC's or test pipes. are the best bang for the buck mods to start with.

I believe the dual intake you are talking about is for 07+

Start by not asking stupid questions. Read the thread they posted and you should be fine.

Hell, maybe in a couple weeks you'll be polished enough to earn some respect.

Swaybars and the driver mod is the best thing you can start with.
