Default Suggestions for parts

So this summer I plan on doing a few local auto-x and I have come into some extra money. I was wondering what would give me more bang for buck auto-x wise. Megan E-Z street coils or Flashpro and tuned? Or anything better in the same price range? Not a track car, still daily driving. Thanks for any input.


P.S. if I was to buy coils I would then be able to sell the stock stuff and Espelir springs to make some money back...

I would rather get a FlashPro than cams. More customization can be done with the FlashPro.

What will give you the most bang... Nice set of tires and a front sway bar IMO if you don't want to by new coil overs.... Flash pro will make more power but will likely show little gain when running around the little orange cones.

I can say Coilovers are a huge improvement over springs. I ran Tein S techs for 1/2 the auto-x season, the next year (last) I put a set of Megan Coilovers... I usually out drove a friend and his STi by about .5 seconds with the Tein S-techs... with the coil overs, I regularly beat him by 2... and the car act like it was on rails when I got the stiffness dialed in for the day, made a huge difference on the wet days, where I beat the STi by almost 4 seconds!!!

I have brand new Hankook Rs3 225/255 set-up so tires are by no means needed lol.

it's a question that you can only answer, go do the autoX and there you should know what you want.

imho suspension and rubber outweight power for me.
