RSR Exhaust -500
T1R 70mm -900
J's 70RR -1500
AEM Intake -250
ARC Intake -400
J's Intake -1100
J's TB -300
Rick's Header -700
J's Header -900
Vortech S/C -3500
Greddy Turbo-1500
AP2 Tranny -900

Thats just a list of what I can remember and not counting visual mods or electronic/tuning mods.

With the price of the Greddy kits going down I would recommend that to anyone. Best bang for the buck and a true bolt on kit.

oh wow.... so i read what... like 3 exhausts and 3 intakes..... and one of the really pricey intakes too.

Like I am kinda iffy at some RPMs with my Invidia Q300. I think either the spectrum elite or T1R sparrow would have been nicer, but I still mostly like the Q300. I wouldnt spend more money to switch.... at least not for awhile haha. So, I guess I just have a very mild case of the bug.

I dont think there is any happy medium. Dual exhaust yield better sound which is why the RSR exhaust was my favorite while the single yield better performance. In the end its what you want to accomplish.

Hey. Names Alan. But the mod was when I had a snorkel. I thought my car wasn't getting enough air at a stop and revving. Like launching at a drag strip. So I cut a hole on the passenger side to route a hose to the hole in the fender and to the fake air duct. So all material added to 30ish dollars.

haha oh wow, i knew that........ sorry alan.......

oh so you had issues with your snorkel? I have heard people say that they 'felt' like the whole heat soak thing (or kangarooing or w/e you wanna call it) got a lot better and pretty much went away when they added a snorkel to the factory airbox.
