not to burst your bubble man but alot of the guys here are going to give you alot of chit about wanting your parents to buy stuff for you especially high performance parts. but if their going to buy stuff for you y first thought would be to lower it and put some real nice wheels on it and then from there the skys the limit i guess.

I think a good suggestion and the best suggestion you will probably receive is to get a job. unless your parents are filthy rich are they??

if you wanted to go small a z-tube, k&n filter and spacer would be fairly inexpensive.


a turbo charger would be nice if you wanted to go big.


if you wanted to go real big, sell the car you have, have mom and dad fork over some more duckets and get yourself an m3 beamer

Dont mean to be rude, but it always feels better when you are able to buy your own mods with your own money!!!!!!!!!!!

I never wanted my parents to have some say in my vehicle when i wanted to go out!

I still can't get over the people jumping on someone because of "HOW" they get the mod money.... the question is "What would you suggest", not "Do you think it is a good idea for mom and dad to buy stuff".... I just wonder if I fall into the "elite" group of G owners that thinks they are better than all others for simply having a nice car. I would like to think it hasn't changed me but at least now I see where the girlfriend was coming from when she saw the new G and said, "I always thought that was a douchebag car"... come on guys, get past your issues with your parents not buying you stuff and simply answer questions!


Good luck, but save the turbo for later, the car is fast enough right now, no need to void warranty.... Go for wheels and a drop!!!!!!

Same here bro. My parents are real rich, and they never let me see a penny, the only thing I do see is they pay for my college if my GPA stays above 3.5.

Go with wheels bro, I think it's real weird asking your parents to make a car go a lot faster with their money. Especially since the car is already fast.

good idea
learn the car inside and out first.do suspension and wheels first.then maybe look at a BBK.no point in goin fast if you cant stop fast.you can always do the basic bolt ons too.then save up and get a turbo.theres plenty out there depending on what power youre lookin for.
