tint the windows. Then after that the next mod should be to buy a tuner from SCT(you will need it for any performance mods so might as well get it first).

i got a sniper tuner and i like that far more than the hand held but it requires a laptop for alot of the tuning stuff, the livewire is also good but i haven't heard to many reviews to it.

They livewire cost more than the X3 and if I'm not mistaken just gives you a visual display to look at. I would say get an SCT X3 and window tint. Oh you have an O8. Alright then look for some CAI/tuner combos. Those are supposed to really wake up the 4.0's

Do the exhuast first. I am not really a fan of tint so i am bias on that one. Also I love any kind of louvers so I would go with them also. Performance wise, CAI/Tune maybe headers, UDP. Depends what you want to do.

If money isn't a factor here then I agree with the CAI/Tuner opinion. But there is a huge difference in price. You are looking at 130$ for a tint job or 400-500$ on up for the Tuner/CAI
