Option B. Add springs and the rear sway bar. Should be around 1000-1100 total.

i want to go with coil's because they're adjustable, and since i live in new england, i feel that would be a better investment. plus i wont have to get new shocks in the future.

True true. Thats why I went with coilovers. I didn't want to get new shocks in the future. I got my coilovers in the summer but only messed around with the adjustments 3 times. I'll mess around it more once it gets warmer.

Option A with a minor adjustment;

Instead of getting coils, getting Lowering Springs. Since you're rolling on stockies, get the Springs AND
a new set of 225/45-sized 17" tires. Both should come to $700 installed. New tires will make a world of
difference in handling with a sway bar added on also. GL.

Option A, but try for better coilovers.

well the reason i picked those, is because theyre a good price and street tuned so they arent gonna give me a bumpy ride. i was going to go with Tein basics but i heard they give a really rough ride

Myke, Tanabe coilovers are pretty good. What were you referring to by "better"?

option "A". usually when people say save up and do all of it all at once the other person is going to think way to hard on what they really want to do. for things like this. take it step by step. as for boosting...do it big or not at all.

I go for Option A.....Option B is overly priced stuff.
