Need help choosing next mod

Ok so I have about 900-1000 to spend on a mod I have headers, intake, wheels, plenum spacer and rsr exhaust iwas thinking about getting hfc and I'm getting my car reflashed and tuned Monday at technosquare but not sure if I would see any gains from the hfc? Or I can look into some sway bars maybe even coilovers, the other thing I was considering was to sell the rsr and go with hks but I'm not even sure if that's worth the hassle, any suggestions?

IF you have headers why wouldn't you invest on a set of HFC

Technosquare tune sounds like a definite to take advantage of those mods
or Invest on a Uprev so you don't have to keep going back to Technosquare

coilovers will probably be the last thing i do because they are so expensive, i have tanabe springs which are fine for now, once my suspension is shot then i will probably get some, i think once i have the hfc's with the headers, exhaust, intake and plenum spacer and i get my reflash and tune from TS then i'll be set on power i won't need anymore than that i''m hoping to get around 300wrhp after my trip to TS with the hfc added on. then i think ill get some sway bars, grounding kit and then finally the coilovers for last

no i picked up the te37's used about 2 yrs ago for 2200, exhaust was from a friend who sold his g a long time ago, i have not gone cheap on anything for my car, coilovers weren't ever on the top of my list for things to do though i wanted to go for looks, then power then suspension

oh ok i dont mean any offense, i just know from my experience that people who chose wheels first and exhaust etc before coilovers tend to cheap out on the other parts, of course there is the exceptions but its what iv seen but yah def do the hfc its pretty much the next best thing relating to exhaust
