1) Fast Intentions Catback Exhaust
2) Fast Intentions High Flow Cats
3) R2C's Black Chrome Pop Charger
4) Eibach Lowering Springs
5) 20mm Rear, 15mm Front Spacers
6) Powdercoating Rims Gloss Black
7) Painting Door Handles Black
8) BlackOut Headlights and Tailights

All together im looking at about $3600 to $3800 total for this. That puts me at about $1,000 to $1,300 left out to spend....Looking for ideas on that one.
So all together would this be an ideal buy for me? Or should i modify something on here?

Looking For FEEDBACK!!!! Plz Help

I would go with Stillen Gen 3 intakes, they have proven power gains.
You will need camber arms for the rear with the lowering springs.
Everything else looks good

Lets say i dont go with the Camber arms...Whats gonna happen?
Also, Ived Changed my choice of intake to Stillen Ultra Long Tube.

Your tires will wear faster, and you will have to replace them more often. So if you have the sport package, I would estimate $1000.00 in tires every 10,000miles.

SOLD! on Camber Arms.

Which model or brand would you recommend for this?

as per the the camber arms: Stock ride height FTW less wheelspin too. I'd save your excess cash and wait for a real tunning solution to be released, fuel efficiency and engine longevity

Oh yeah or a mild 100shot of spray done right (which will cost a little over a grand). Performance in a bottle when you need it mog legal when you don't

Not everyone wants forced induction...

For the OP:

1) Sure
2) I'd make sure they don't throw codes first - but NC might be loose on their emissions stuff...
3) As everyone else said - wait for numbers. IMHO, I don't see those short pop-chargers, regardless of brand, making solid numbers compared to Stillen's kit (or any other brand that is similar for that matter).
4) Never was a fan of lowering springs myself, but I guess if that's your thing... Coil overs for me
5) Are you planning on tracking the car? Figured I'd ask...all this money going into the car, why not a nice set of properly-offset wheels?
6) Read above. Trying to save money on the wheels I assume...
7) Yeah, I want to do that too...
8) And now that I see this, I can only assume this car is going to be a hard-parker, so I guess whatever mods make it look good, go for it lol.

Best and most Honest review yet. Two Thumbs up
