What to do??

I have some money to spend on my car. But i'm not sure what to get. I currently have the spacer, cold air intake, pulleys and ground wires. I also have a fancy alarm.

I was thinking of ordering either a new:
Exhaust
EDFC system with Suspension
Rims and Tires
New Battery
Body Kit

Please any advice would be great. I want my car to look nice and go fast. Thanks for all the help..

Yes . . . What is your budget and what are you expecting to achieve? Is handling an interest, a bit more power, exterior looks?, etc.

I agree with Rphillips. Of all the things i added to the car, the rims gave t the most distinguishing look! go for the rims and tires!

My Intrests

My Budget is about 2000$. I was originally thinking of rims and tires but again not sure of what size and after looking at everyones nice rims I have realized I will need more money. But, Not sure to go flashy with 20's or to stay with the 19's. I am trying to achieve great lines with lots of power and great handeling. I don't have enough to dump money in all at once but want to add to it slowly to keep up the power.

I'm wondering alot about changing the suspension to the edfc unit by tien. This would be right around what kind of cash i have. My friend is a mechanic and owns his own shop. He said he could install them for me to save some money. He owns a twin turbo viper.

Still torn on which to get first but will be getting something soon. Thank you all for your help and great advice. It has been a big help!

Drop is required before rims IMO, and $2000 isn't enough to get a really good pair of wheels unless you buy used, so I say get coilovers and camber kits and drop that bish first. If you go with tein basics(~$800),Eibach rear camber kit($143), and SPC front camber(~$400), you still have money leftover for an intake and swaybars

Save up a little more and try to score a used supercharger here in the marketplace. If you want lots of power that will be your best bet for the money available. Suspension adds up really fast for relatively minor things, but if you invest that same amt in power mods you will get a completely different beast!

buy some 22"s and just cut the springs!!! fo sho fo sho!!!!

jk, DO NOT DO THIS

i would get tein basics, camber kit (front and rear), and sways. You would be suprised as to how much this changes your car, you'll have so much fun with it. The stock 19"s are good wheels... just... well everyone has em.
