Default Looking for mod advice

Hey guys I'm at the point where I'm not sure which way to go on the next mod for my car (yes I know it becomes addicting but im trying to budget myself)

Anyways as of now I have a JWT popcharger which I absolutely love, a K&N air filter (nothing special), and now I don't know what to do next.

If I were going to do a supercharger/turbo id probably go with the supercharger but my car has 60,000 miles and I really would rather not spend that much money. I'd like to keep it below 1,000.

I've heard that a plenum spacer would be a good upgrade, but after searching these forums I haven't found anything posted recently and was wondering if that was because people have found that it isnt a good idea or what? And would something like this be an easy install.

I'd really appreciate any comments or suggestions as to what direction I should head in.

Thanks
Mike

Berk high flow cats & true dual cat back exhaust system, then fold the rear lip to show off the new exhaust, & maybe a Nismo finned differential rear end cover.

Sorry but your freshman status is long over. Time to move to the sophmore class, and start making decisions on your own.

How / why do you have a JWT pop charger and a K&N air filter? Why replace the JWT filter with a K&N when they serve the same purpose.

It is a helpful mod. If you have a Rev-up engine then you would need to replace the lower plenum as well to get any benefit.

And would something like this be an easy install.
If I can do it, anyone can. Check out my thread in the DIY section.
