Greetings. My car is a daily driver, so the plan is to remain N/A and have a car that is mildly upgraded in terms of power, acceleration, handling, noise and looks.

so far i have a CAI/Tune combo from Bamachips, a Hurst, FRPP X-pipe w/GTAs, and various "show" goodies. i'm getting the itch to upgrade again, and thought i'd get your opinions -

option #1 - 3.73s. I'm not getting 4.10s, I have the 3.31s right now and would like a mild upgrade, but don't want to lose too much mileage. i have the hurst already so i figure this would be another 0-60 mod. price - around $600 installed.

option #2 - FRPP swaybars. i haven't done anything to the suspension yet, and i don't want to lower the car. i had a pro kit on my '06 and i didn't like dealing with having a lowered car. it would be great to handle a little better though. price - around $650 installed.

option #3 - LCAs/FRPP Strut tower brace combo. slight improvements to both my 0-60 and my handling. obviously i could install the strut tower brace myself, so cost would be around the same - around $600 total.

option #4 - GT 500 spoiler/SHR blackout/FRPP floormats/GT 500 pedals/MWAG mirror covers. just go ballsout with the "show" mods, leaving only the aftermarket hood to do in the future. total cost - around $650.

what say you???

 

I said option four mostly because I love my GT 500 wing. I'm not usually much for the showy mods but that wing does a lot for the car. The 3.73's sound like the next mod after that. If your'e like me you'll do them all eventually...

 

I say option 3... I like to get the car performing good before looking good. But that is just my opinion.

 

Gears will give you night and day difference in acceleration

 

Try to focus on getting styling or performance mods totally completed before moving on to the next .JMO

 

If you're staying NA I'd go with a different gearing. I'd suggest 3:93's or 4:10's. You don't lose squat for mileage and the difference is more than worth it.

 

I went with 3 only because i love my lca's!
