Default Got my loan Modification program for the Civic start today

I just got my auto loan approved, now I just need to plan out a modification plan.

Step one, buy an SI.
- does anyone know of a good dealership in the SF Bay Area.

Step two... Brakes

Step three... Suspension

Step four... Go Turbo

I'll keep everyone posted.

I thought you are doing a loan modification on your auto loan payment.....lol

If I were you, I would do the suspension -> I/H/E/FLASH -> Brake -> FI -> Body/Wheels

Adding power without adding grip and braking is foolish. Very few people can drive their stock power cars to their full potential.

He said he already is adding brakes and grip before power. Which is stupid anyway, why would you upgrade the brakes before adding power? Driving a stock SI with upgraded brakes would be boring. Unless you track the car the stock brakes are fine even with a turbo trust me. I've done 500whp with the stock brakes on the street and at the drag strip, it's fine. You only need a brake upgrade if you're car sees track time. And slotted rotors do not really count as an upgrade. That is only a marginal upgrade they do not help you stop in a shorter distance but do help you if you plan to stop repeateadly.
