yeah, plenum is the way im leaning. i just want to hear what everyones got to say. actually im thinking plenum & test pipes along with the crank pulley and the Greddy Emanage. i know the UTEC is a better product, but for what im doing, i think the greddy will do just fine. gotta figure, most people dont even do anything for fuel management. ive got a fella about 10 houses down that tunes and has a dyno, so thats also a big reason for the Emanage.

I'd do the Plenum. It was quick, cheap, and fun to do. I also did the JWT pop charger which is pretty decent for as cheap as it is (100 bucks)

As far as mods, I bought my 05 6MT October 30th and on the way to pick it up stopped by Pep Boys and picked up a K&N drop in filter, brought the car home and installed it first thing

I've got 6.5k miles on it and have the Copper MREV+ Plenum spacer, JWT Pop Charger with the Z-Tube, HKS Hi Power Ti exhaust (that was the cherry on top). I just took it to the dealer for it's 3rd but their 1st oil change (I did the first two myself) and they didn't say a thing. I knew when my car was ready tho. It was loud enough to hear it pulling out of the bays

Enjoy but be careful... Moding becomes a disease REAL quickly.

Consider adjustable swaybars on your next round to move that power around the corners. Relatively cheap and good improvement in handling.

funny you should mention that.. im looking into the Hotchkis sways & springs. pretty good package price. im a little confused as to why the front spring rates are lighter than stock, but the rear is harder. anyone have anything to share on that?
