i got a 98 lude and i put a CAI and i cant decide on what to do next!
im debating on either getting a greddy evo 2 exhaust, an intake manifold, or some decent headers. if yall got ne other ideas it'd be appreciated! thnx

 

Depends on what you wanna do with the car. Do you want it for looks, to go fast, or both? You could work on suspension next

 

suspension

agreed

 

finish up the breathing mods--a CAI, Header, or Exhaust on its own won't do much, but all 3 working together (with a hf cat) will produce much better results. just changing one of these elements just moves the place of restriction to the part that isn't being replaced.

but yeah, suspension/tires is always high up on my list. higher than power mods.

 

Well although it would be better to get good suspension, i would get stage 1 camshafts if i were you. And then suspension. or full exhaust. Man this is sort of a hard question. But i'll go with that order cams, suspension, full exhaust. Or whatever you want the most.

 

spend the money on a driving school. it will make up for lack of horsepower

Why would you get cams when you don't have a header nor exhaust?
Cams first?.......wtf..............

I say finish the Exhaust system - to compensate for your intake system.
Then do tires and suspension.
Then start doing internal mods
And tuning

+1, all those bolt ons don't matter in a road race

you would be amazed at the cars you can pass on the track

i.e bullit mustangs, porsches, etc

or can get passed by:

toyota echo, saturn SC2, integra RS, EF civic DX hatch, etc etc.

the bolt ons and other stuff matters, eventually.

 

tires

 

Since the H22 stock header isn't too bad, I'd get the Greddy exhaust. Then header, suspension, intake manifold and throttle body, and finally cams

 

yeah eventually, but for starters, as i assumed from his post, it would be good to know the basics instead thinking all the mods in the world will make you a better driver
