^ Get the HKS Exhaust, high flow cats or test pipes, headers if you want, K&N Drop-In filter, Z-tube, MD Plenum Spacer, MD MREV2, an ECU reflash (technosquare), Coilovers and sways, camber kits, and lastly a sick set of wheels. Thats what I would do.

I was about a week away from putting in an Mrev2, the 5/16 spacer and a pop charger. but now Ive been hearing a lot of talk that the Mrev2 is not good for the AT. Any suggestions as to where to take it now? ECU chip? Y tube?

the existing thread is there for a reason, being too lazy to read through a thread that is specifically about your question is a bit ridiculous.

I paid 800 for my exhaust!! but it was a steal, found it on craigslist, stillen catback with dual wall tips... plus added the knetix HFC's ($400) sounds so good!

How much HP are you looking to make?

If you've got a 6MT you should be good with just a clutch

If you want over 400 you're going to need to build your motor... I'm sure people have done it and gotten away with it but its only a question of time...

The general consensus is that you'll be fine up to 400 without internal work.

And as for the turbos themselves stay away from APS. JWT and greddy are solid, but its really all in the tune. If you want more detailed info post up in the FI section too

I just installed a z-tube on my car. Is the side of the hose that connects to the front of the car supposed to bend a little?

hi im kinda new here and was wondering what mods i could get now that i could use later on down the line. My plans are to within about 5-6 months do a complete motor build and twin turbo it but for right now my car is pretty much stock. I was gonna get a hks exhaust and mrev w/ spacer, ztube, k&n drop in but im thinkin once i do the build that stuff would have just been a waste of money... plz help im lookin to do at least a little something now car just feels slow guess i got used to it... oh yea this is on 04 coupe sport package
