put this in here b/c i really didnt want ppl other than you guys/gals in the midwest in this thread, theres too much flaming going around, and i know you guys can probably help me install it. my birthday is coming up and i usually buy something for myself, hey who better knows what i want for my birthday than myself right, hehe. anyways, i wanted to buy something for the car and most of you have seen what i have on my car so i was wondering what i should get. i'm more into appearance but wouldn't mind trying a cai or wai and exhaust like oldsman has suggested. and i know i desprately need to be lowered, and my current neons need to be replaced so many things but i only want to do one. and i've always wanted juice ever since silent got them but 4500 scares me :P whatever you guys suggest let me know where i can pick it up and how much, thanks guys. oh yeah i guess my price range is something less than 400?

you could get springs and WAI for under $400. it depnds on what springs you goto. they range from $140 to $220
CAI $230-$250
WAI $100-150
far as exhaust, depends on if you are going with cat-back or just muffler. I would say min of $150 all the way up to $500 for exhaust

I deffinatly say springs Charlez!! will look so much better with ur wheels. I got a spring compressor if ya need...helps ALOT! Springs will run ya bout $200, give or take a bit on which u choose. Keep in mind u should get an alignment. I wasnt gonna, but my car pulls to the right now so I'll prolly get that done this weekend.
But I deff say springs.
or if u wanna feel faster.....deffinatly a CAI.

I would say since your more show than go, go with springs and a WAI, WAI has a better tone to the sound I think, that would be cool. go for the intimidation factor :thumbsup:
