Default Got $200 What Should I get?

I have 200 bucks to spend but don’t know what to get? Nology Ignition wires or, Zip S-pipe. The nology wire looks like a good engine dress up and maybe it will save me some gas. Zip s-pipe this was my first decision because I wanted better sound and more hp in the high rpms.

it's ZPI and the only reason to get plug wires is for show or to replace the stock ones when they go bad. they don't actually add any power or anything

For 200 bucks you could pick up the front strut bar and rear sway bar...so worth it, better control and handling is always a good thing.

No no no no no. Lowering the angle 5 degrees lower is not a solution, it's a band-aid on a gash... Those will give you glare glare and more glare...


The proper way to do HID is projector retrofits.


Please visit www.hidplanet.com for all your HID questions.
