Default mods for xmas

Ok so i got the green light to start modding my car. Im thinking C&L CAI w/ tune from brenspeed and FRPP stingers or magnaflows(not sure yet)

Or maybe nitrous and a tune?

Is this a good start? any other mods i should get first?

thanks!!!

That's about it, CAI, tune and exhaust. Later you can go for gears and maybe a cam / supercharger depending on what you want to do.

I want, but my wallet says I can't. So I am stock and will stay stock.

That is a nice X-mas present for your self!!! I'm thinking about the same mods next month. Just gotta find a shop that will tune.

Sounds like a good plan to me, youll love the intake/tune sooo good. For me though I prefer the Bassani exhaust, sounds good

The CAI is normally bought with a tuner and tunes so no shop is needed. Check out B a m a Chips.com and Brenspeed for combo units.

Ya I got that from the Brenspeed site. Just bolt on the CAI and go. As far as plugging in the tuner Im guessing the instructions should be fairly easy. I do like the C&L set up just gotta decide on the exhaust.

Check the link on my signature. Get some ideas from my wishlist. Personally, I would go SLP Loudmouths or Bassani rather than Borla. I wouldn't get Magnaflow at all. SOunds too ricey to me on some cars.

How bad is the nitrous on our engines? what needs to be changed before I can even think about installing a nitrous kit? This scares me a bit.
