The 19"'s would be real nice to have thats for sure. Though for a possible $1k a corner, i reckon we could get better rims i.e. lighter, style (each to their own there). The other thing would be how the car would handle on the 19's, if our suspension settings are any different?

Not too fussed over the exhaust system for now (unless you guys get a real good deal coz cash isnt that readily available at the moment).

Was looking at the Intakes on the Stillen website... there seems to be a thousan there... what would you guys recommend for best sound and best power gain.

Let me know before you buy! I want a mean induction noise to match the mean-ness of the rest of the car :P
Hi there gromano. The Stillen Intakes you want are the G3 Long Tubes, this is where we (QLDr's) are getting them from. Kyle from Import Parts has been great to deal with. There are plenty of other vendors out there, this just happens to be where we or going to.

Most reports i have read on here, they are getting 12-17rwhp without any other mods done. Personally i would rather go exhaust first i Money was tight. Thats just my preference, as i love the SOUND of a good exhaust. They are getting similar power gains, if not a few more.
