Quaife question

i searched this product and found that some were getting it and very few had just got it but seemed to like it. i was wondering now that some time has passed what your thoughts were on it? is it worth the money? would it be a good first mod or is it just for ecu and pully cars? i dont want the ecu and pully yet so im lookin for some other mods. i thought about headers but just not enough benefit to cash ratio. thanks for your time.

If you care about handling, you may want this. I'd wait and get it when you are doing more invasive mods. In all honesty, tires are the best bang mod. The LSD is not exactly a basic mod, although it is for the serious drivers.

Headers (RennTech, since it is a straight bolt on), Resonator cutouts, K&N Air filters, and the magical STAR timing advanced.

Any one alone is a maybe. All together is a solid increase.

Heck, why don't you see if there is anyone willing to get us a group buy rate for the headers? I have a few buyers.
