wow......so many reply in short period of time...thx guyz....there are some good suggestions^^
all i hv on my ride is tinted windows (i dun count this as a mod)
it looks like that most of u hv an intake and exhaust in ur car....since i dunno anything much about car.....can anyone tell me the purpose of an intake and the difference between CAI and SRT.....which one is better?????
also.....i heard that racingbeat is a pretty good exhaust for p5.....wut does it sound like without any other mods(anyone has a soundclip)......r there any opinions [i know Magnaflow and Megen r popular for P5 too...but which one is the quietest(im sharing the car with my parents so i dun want a really really loud one...all i want is a slightly deeper sound)???]
also....does a HKS Hi Power Exhaust looks and sounds good on a P5....it doesn't seem many ppl hv that on their ride

The intake is for the engine to breathe better. I think SRI and CAI are the same since it doesn't really increase a lot of hp, may be 1-3hp??? But I wanna converse my CAI to SRI. Get the Magnaflow, I think it look good, and it's not that loud.

The HKS was much quieter than the Megan. The HKS got quiet after like 75-80mph. Many people dont have the HKS cuz its pricey and its just the axleback section. Its angled out of the back of the car, I liked how it looked alot. Its the same price as the Megan catback as well as many others. People who have the racing beat love it, it gets nothing but praise on here, ive never heard one.

lol as poseur said a short shifter will solve the de-capping of soda's, that got really annoying. I still hate our cupholders.

If you are looking for a deeper sound maybe just a header and intake with the stock exhaust? Anyone ever tried that before? The guy who had my car before me drilled 2, 3\16" holes right before the muffler itself that gave it a bit more sound than stock...
 
welcome to the boards. First mod was a injen cai. The list goes on and on. Use raiders advise from the earlier post. Research on exhausts, some are loud,pricy, some remove the 2nd cat. To save some money on a intake I would have prob just get one from ebay and used the money towards something else. Enjoy the car.
