I;m in a dilemma right now. I'm choosing either to get suspension and rims or turbo first. my car is completely stock ATM. and I would really love to have turbo what you guys think? I'll be running on 7 psi

 

I wouldnt even go as far as suspension and rims, but you will never regret doing suspension, tires and maybe brakes before you start making more power. If you start making silly power but cant steer or stop that would suck.

Of course everyone wants to go fast, so getting a turbo would be nice......BUT i would personally go for the supension just because I like to take long trips and would rather be comfortable while driving.

 

go with some good coilovers and wheels

 

suspension.

learn how to drive your car before adding more power!

having an underpowered, well handling car &gt; powerful car that handles like crap (srt4 what?).

 

If it's only a daily driver, having a turbo would be nice, even on stock tires and stock suspension.

 

it is a DD

 

power is nothing without control

suspension.

 

If it's just your daily driver then you could get away with putting on a turbo and leaving the suspension stock, just make sure you get some properly rated tires to handle the HP. If you plan to do any racing at all then you need to upgrade the suspension before you make that much power or it won't be pretty. You can make all the hp and tq you want, but it has to go somewere.

Word.

My vote and reason is the same.

Plus, if you go turbo, and want to track it sometime, theyre more than likely going to put you in a class where you cant compete that well with a LIGHTLY modified suspension.

Start slow, and work your way up to the big mods.

 

i was thinking for my first mod beside maybe CAI.
Getting suspension(coilovers)

 

A coilover setup will not make your car more comfortable to drive. Most aftermarket suspension has stiffer spring rates making you feel a lot more bumps and other parts of the road. It will make your car feel like it's on rails during hard turns etc. But other than that, the comfort level will be less than that of a stock suspension setup's.

With that in mind, I hope the best. I would go suspension just because the stock EP's is a little too soft for me.

 

gotta have the car to be solid and handle the pressures of forced induction or else when your *** hits boost youll run off the road

get some ground control coilovers,front and rear tower pars,tie-bars,etc.
