If you only can modify 3 Performance things on your S2K
what would you spend it on? ( no supercharger, turbocharger, or anything that cost $3000 alone, plz)

ie. exhaust, intake, final gear....etc.

AEM or 4IG CAI, Fujitsubo or Mugen exhaust, and VAFC will do it for me.

Well, I've ordered the 4.77 gears and I think a front sway bar and some race tires (+spare stock wheels) are the next on the list.

I chose those things because I track and auto-x but I don't know what I would do for street use only. It seems to me that all the i/h/e stuff is really not the best bang for your buck. You may save some weight but if you are not competing for times then you'll never reap the benefits of weight savings on the street... plus it'll make your car loud. A few ponies aren't worth a couple grand to me.

What do you want to do with your car? Pimp or drive? That'll point you in the right direction.
