Auto or stick?

First mod for most is intake cause it's so simple and does a lot (as far as bolt-ons go).

Do a search on CAI and intake and you'll get more than enough.

I'll have an AEM CAI available for purchase in the next few months... can't tell you an exact date cause I don't know when I'm putting the turbo on yet...

You may just want to change the look of your car first and go with more of a handling mod. Good idea to lower with lowering springs or coil overs. You can also search on those and get a bunch of info.

HIH!
