oh sorry op, not trying to hijack thread
no problem man, i wanna hear about this too....i have coilover now so sways might come a little bit later
right now i want a small increase in power so i guess i might go for the MD spacer and Z-tube at the same time, good idea or no?
ps: any DIY for the MD spacers? i cant seem to find it

Motordyne 5/16 Spacer is a good mod for the money but so is a nice aftermarket exhaust.

If your looking at plenums, there's Crawford and APS, I prefer the APS b/c it's bigger. Swaybars are a must. Strut bar is not really necessary unless you have money to throw around.

you have a 6mt so i don't think grounding wire will help much. they generally benefit AT's more than 6mt for faster shifts
