Which Mod First

[true2blue92]

I know this is probably a common question but I'm having trouble decided what to do. I've had my car for just about a year and havn't done any purchased mods so to say. I'm finally gonna get something and i just can't decide what to do first. Its a toss up of Springs & MM, Intake & MM, or DP. I'd like to get a DP cause I already have a magnaflow race muffler that i could get thrown on then I'd have a TBE, but on the other hand I love how the car looks lowered and I would love better handling. I'm confused...

Yeah, lowering is very nice. But, if I could choose to lower my car, I would get some coil overs rather than getting springs even if they are cheaper.

get some shifter bushings too ($30). i'm having a harder time missing third now.

Hehe, look at your polls and follow!!

looking for better handling?, you should consider the COBB Rear sway bar, only $165, and about 20 min install!!, but the rear motor mount and shifter bushings will make your drive experience much nicer. Then bending how you drive better gas mileage or more power with the intake. Hope this helps.

Clearly, on the MS3, motor mounts and the intake will garner the best gains for the money. DP adds quite a bit of power but I'm really not a fan of losing 4 years of powertrain warranty on a brand new car. And lowering springs are pretty much a cosmetic mod on this car unless you're serious about better handling then full coilovers are the only way to go.

haha yeah the polls are legit and obvious of what choice needs to be made

intake will make you happy in pants, motormount will help keep your happyness inside of the pants and not flop around all over the place haha(shady)

well lokks like inake and MM win for first mods i would agree easy install and bouth liven up the car and they support futhere mods. the downpipe is a good part to have i just would not do as first mod.

 

[true2blue92]

Lol wow well I definitely see what I should do. Looks like I'm going with intake and Motor Mounts. For sure TRZ Delrin MM, and i have been plannin on going with the cobb but I plan on gettin a corksport DP so i was thinkin maybe the corksport intake??? Any oppinions?

 

[dkswim]

cobb is an easy install. good gains out of it...

 

[true2blue92]

YEah I was kinda plannin on just going with that even tho i'm getting the cs dp. its been around for longer and havn't heard anything bad about it plus its cheaper

I have to agree with you with the intake givin you a good amount of gain without making the bank broke... and also a good mod for the speed 3 is the hybird bov/bpv it doesnt do much but make the car sound hot as hell (bump)

(peep)
