Default Next Mod

Running a 2003 Track in B-Stock-Street. I've just bought Azenis RT-615s. I may have a few more bucks kicking around... what do you think my next mod should be to stay in Stock for this year, and possibly moving to SS next year?

Thanks.

Shocks are legal in stock....and add a lot of adjustability to a car. But a good alignment is just as important...and replacing shocks requires an alignment afterwards anyhow. So you can either do an alignment (if the funds are low) or shocks + alignment. After that go for front swaybar, then a super light catback (most of the improvement in exhausts seems to come from loosing weight in these cars, not really making more power).

The local club uses stock, ss (6 pts), sp (15 pts), and mod (unlimited).

What alignment specs would you suggest?

It's from the Canadian National AutoCross regs.

Disregard the alignment question, I started a new thread for it.

I don't consider an alignment a 'mod' - its a necessity! After that I'd say shocks. I'm happy with the adjustment I get out of my Tokicos. Stiff for autox and softer for the daily grind. A 4-pt harness is also a nice thing to have after that...
