I'm afraid of mods because a later mod may make this mod outdated

I've modded my previous car and I am someone who spent plenty of money fixing things here and there.

My best advice is this, have an objective for your purchase and research.

My first modification is to get the car to sound aggressive and actually get a tone out of the exhaust. I noticed AAM short pipes sound great, but it's a muffler delete at the end of the day I want to gain some hp with my purchase as well. With current black Friday deals I was able to get a great price on an Agency Power exhaust, so I looked it up on YouTube and I will proceed with purchase.

As for the intakes, I know that my exhaust being 2.5" will be able to work with a FI kit if I go FI in the future, don't think I'll want to exceed 425whp. So I will be purchasing Z1 tubes as an engine dress up mod and K&N filters, this has been proven to add 8whp or so. Given that the filters will inevitably need to be replaced the filter cost is a wash and the tubes I found for very cheap.

As for the suspension, I will always have a desire to be low, but I drove a very low vehicle previously and I understand the hassle it can be to drive around town especially getting stuck taking right turns when the tire is off the ground. I realized the swift springs are the right purchase for me.

For the brakes, I have the sport package and I feel as though the stock brakes and pads will suffice for now, perhaps upgraded pads in the future.
