ordered a handfull of goodies today

I decided to dip into the bank account today and ordered a bunch of goodies. I orderd the borla truedual exhaust, crawford hi-flow cats, DC ceramic headers, unorthadox pulleys, 8wire Grounding Gear set, Eibach sways F/R. These mods came to $4173.21 cnd/$3358.07 US. Do u think this is a decent price for these mods or did i get ripped off.

My Savini SV3 rims and Eibach pro kit finally came in today, they are 245/35/19 front, and 285/35/19 rear(Chrome)

I will post pics of rims as soon as possible, along with pics of each mod as they get installed. I will post the time it takes for each instalation and labour cost.

What do you guys recommend i get next. (getting a plenum soon)

Yea Kia, but you are forgetting that you can't just turbo and leave internals stock...its always best to start with internals and work your way out to FI...

I like all but never heard about the Borla for the coupes???

but you cant get headers and exhaust b4 twin turbo. it has to meet the specs for the turbo...

anyhow, a twin turbo will have alot more gain than pulleys, exhaust, headers, grounding gear, right?!?!

G35Rider, i hear ya tho.
maybe get a new headunit next...??

Well Im installing a members on this site next week and he paid 3500.00 used and it has a few extras. Yes it is a big boooost in performance. Its like a whole new car! Ive been doing this modding thing for about 12 years now. I use to buy all the bolt ons, but that added up fast and the HP didnt! If you have that much cash up front I would save a little more and go all out!

I put a Borla exhaust on my coupe and it is working out well. Actually, I've seen quite a few forums where people have Borla exhaust as a mod.

As for the pricing of the mods, they sound about right - although I haven't priced all those types of items. I looked at headers, but it's a good bit of work to put them on and I don't know if the performance gain would be worth it. Like several people mentioned, FI if you have deep enough pockets.
