Need additional Mods - please advise

I currently have this

1) UT Carbon Fiber G tube
2) KN Filter
3) Crawford Cats
4) Jic Y pipe
5) Fuji Exhaust
6) Stillen Sways.

My car is 05AT black sport package.

a) some type of headers that would not lean out the AF a lot
b) I would like some kind of front lip and grill (but would need new emblems).


Any suggestions? Anything I should consider?

Gialla Grill, or replica of it looks very sporty, especially on a black coupe. I have one myself, and it makes a world of difference. Some people have mixed views on it over the stock one, either you like it or you don't. Either go with the OEM Front Lip, or the Gialla Front Lip, both are very nice.

1. I've heard good things about the Strup and DC headers. Ask around.

2. I have T-Rex billet grills on my G, Not too bad of an install.

I have OEM grill.
I also have strup headers on order, should arrive within a week. I do expect them to make the engine run a little more lean, will have to get it tuned.
Get a plenum spacer!! I just installed one last night, world of difference! I got the MREV, but since you dont have the REVUP engine that is not a choice for you. I would go with a Motordyne Engineering spacer, they seem to get excellent reviews. http://www.motordyneengineering.com

Good Luck

Thanks for the advice. Ill check out those grills and lips. I am not decided on the headers, because I do not want to tune my car.

Recommend the following:

(1) TS Hood Dampers: makes all the 'visual' difference in the world. Ordered mine from JapanParts.com. No more "long tent-pole" to hold the hood up...

(2) Stillen Rear Strut Tower Brace: Makes a big diffreence in handling, plus it makes your trunk space "pop!"
