thats what id say too. a better suspension is always nice.

 

Do you have any suspension set up at the moment?

 

kyb agx's are coo for the price or see if u can pick up a used set of koni yellows

 

grammar lessons?!? im messin with ya. maybe a clutch, short shifter, alarm to name a few.

 

Better idea: Have him sign you up for an HPDE.

most def suspension upgrades

 

Get a badger painted on the hood of your car!

 

i'm gonna say alarm. because your car isn't going to do you any good if someone steals it.

but if you already have that covered, then suspension would be nice

 

if your car needs it, maybe a tune up and regualr maintenece i.e. timing belt, water pump

 

guess i wasnt very clear bout it have eibachs and i live in bum **** red neck ville so fortunately there arent to many people that like my car...haha..and my rubber is fine

Keep the springs but get better shock espically if yours are stock. Upgrade the sway bar. tower bradces (some say they are not worth it) You could also look into a short shifter and **** (skunk2)

O ya, cam gears are worthless without cams and a good tune. So dont waste time with those

 

I agree with this guy about the maintenance and tune up

well hmm... dont need a cf hood or anything like that?
if not, I guess go ahead and get your skunk2 intake...
Theres not really anything else that is around that price range that helps your performance too much, so get the intake I guess... too bad you cant set up a nice homemade turbo for that much thatd be sweet.

Kendall, you win a cookie . Have your dad sign you up for a driving school, or a few solo II events. Who cares about mods...learn how to drive your car to its limits first.

 

look i just wanted to know if i should get a ecu or intake...i kno how to ****** drive....ha my suspension is fine will replace it as needed....all i wanna kno is if im gonna get a better gain from a ecu or a intake...thanks for the info bout the cam gears and under drive pulleys....preciate it

Rofl dude.. no need to get fiesty with the guy.. Those driving schools are friggin badass. They teach you how to drive your car to it's limits... and also teach you valuable driving techniques.

As far as what mods to get. I'd reccomend saving yer pesos, and have your dad go 1/2 with you on a bolt-on turbo kit, or some headwork and cams. Becuase, and im speaking from experience here, you are not going to notice any real difference in power from just an intake mani or a chip. Those parts are meant to go in conjunction with other bolt-ons, and you shouldn't really waste your money unless you are going to be needing them.

If you still want to just have him spend his cash right away, I'd reccomend a hondata unit, and having your car professionally dyno tuned. Either that or if you are a fan of nitrous... get a used kit from someone ehre on ht and squeeze away.
