Default What should I do next?

I have some money to spend on my car (finally) and I'm stuck between three options. I can (1.) get two Sparco Corsa seats which will run me around $1200 after harnesses and brackets, (2.) get the Decah Vertical Door Conversion which is $1600 and I've heard it's not much for installation, or (3.) I can hold off and save a little longer and turbo my car. Any opinions would be appreciated.

Either the seats or the turbo. I would personally do the turbo.

Well depends on what you want more looks or speed. Personally i would go for the turbo but thats because i wouldn't feel right paying 1200 or 1600 on something that really doesn't make anything more efficiant just cool looking. Haha but its all up to what you are looking for in the car.

i wouldn't say it's the "gayest" thing i've ever seen, but the turbo would probably be the route to go. it's also the most expensive option out of the three.
