thanks for the welcome guys, mod's for now will only be tint, wheels, exhaust and intake, my last car i went all out on mods and the car wasn't reliable anymore, oh and maybe a software upgrade if one is available.

I did mines from speedtuningusa.com, a couple people did it from the 209 and 208 forums. I felt a big difference once mines kicked in. power and mpg increased. I live down the street from him so i just took my car to him, but most people just mailed out their ecu to him. i highly recommend him.

Ya I got a price for the Renntech carbon fiber airbox. It's $1795 with a 10+ HP gain. It's pricey, but it looks nice and decent HP gain. They also make camber correction kits.

here's what i'm thinking, it has the inlets for air right where the filters would be right, i can make two heat shields to go under the filters which would help with the engine bay heat, good idea or bad idea?
