Default What are your top 5 mods- Bang for buck?

I was wondering what everyone thinks are the best 5 mods. The best amount of HP for the money you pay.

TB and PLunum spacer, nitrous, and superchargers. all the other mods are not "bang for the buck"

Bahwhat? spacers are a waste of money and time. best bang for buck mods IMO are Nitrous (or FI), TIRES!!!!!!, total exhaust (go all the way if ur going to do it, dont stop at the x-pipe, although u will see good gains for the money going to a o/r x and catback alone), and honestly, p/p and stage 1 cams unless uve got the mods to support stage 2. cams can be one of the best power investments you make. If i had the money I would be going there real soon

gears and tuner kinda go hand in hand.... need it to fix speedo and you can get great gains from them if you advance timing (which you cant do if you go with nitrous)
