i went stage 1 first cuzz it is most bang for the buck. then I/C upgrade cuzz that is our cars biggest enemy. then headers cuzz that gets the hot air out faster, our cars second enemy back pressure. now i have almost 100more HP so i need better traction so i went LSD and toe links 3rd enemy cant hook up. and last i will do TB cuzz it is a bolt on product. and not sure if im ready for head work. i might do the air box if vrus gets it done but thats probably gonna be it. untill i can save my pennys for the SLR intercoolers, witch i realy am thinkin about gettin. i have to wait to see what the price is installed and guaranteed HP numbers from adam.
