ok so i got my tc.. got it from the dealer so its completely stock.. obviously! im lookin in the near future to put alot of mods.. but for now i want to put a cold air intake and a exaust.. but i only want to put ONE right now.. which 1 should i add 1st? and why?

 

id worry about dropping the car before I worry about useless bolt ons. a drop should be an automatic first.

after id get an exhaust cause bolt on's are completely and uterly useless

 

That.
There needs to be a mod rule book.
Drop always comes first.

 

srsly. drop should ALWAYS come first.

 

Oops. It came like 3rd for me...
For real though, springs. Do it.

 

lolol no big, atleast you got them

 

Man I would have to disagree with all of that. It really depends on what you are going for, a "show car", or a "performance car".

 

Out of those two, exhaust should come first, you wont regret it.

 

yeah! drop that thing like a hot tamale!

 

I see 2 things wrong with what you just said. if you think a CAI & Exhaust is considered 'performance' you must be new to modding your car, and if you think lowering your car is just for "show" then again you must be new, there are more 'performance' aspects to lowering a car (ie. cornering, better handling etc.) then adding about 300-700$ worth of metal that barely gain 1-3hp

 

Im going to have to say +1 with this^^ guy

 

According the NOS ad above this comment box, redefining the laws of physics is up to you, so that means the exhaust can add 3000 whp!

 

my sticker gave me 3x that power!

 

nos stickers give you more hp then bolt ons

 

ok thank all for the advice.. and for those who have nothing better to do but crack cornyyyy jokes.. thanks for the attention!

 

lulz.

suspension first! springs/coilovers. sway bar's etc.

 

aka coilovers

CAI & Exhaust its a good way to start out. its better then spending 1500-2000$ and have one bust.

 

no need for coilovers. like I said before, you must be new.

TRD springs alone are a dramatic change in handling alone, no need to spend 800-1200$ worth in coilovers unless your either planning on tracking your car, or being low ashell, and springs alone go for 100-200$ in the classifieds.

CAI & Exhaust isn't worth getting, you'll be spending roughly 300$ for a new intake + $300-700 on a decent exhaust system, spending roughly about $600-1000 to barely gain 1-3 whp and mostly for noise. trust me I should know since I own all bolt ons and they were a huge waste of money.

spend money on suspension parts and that alone is such a dramatic change to your car alone that you'll feel the difference (springs, sway bar etc). then get an exhaust for some sound, that's all.

 

btw idk what coilovers your looking at that are worth 1500-2000$

 

^^JIC, tein SS-P, KW all in that basic range. lol
