RE: how does my mod list rate up?
ah,
I think I'd rather just save up and get the gears/TC first before the
smaller mods.Pretty sure I'll be much more impressed by the bigger mods then just get the
smaller ones to complement them.
I'll also go ahead and get the muffer delete race pipes with my I/T since they are only like $180,
the stockers are just so quiet.

Forget about that. If you are going to do everything under 2-3 months ditch that plan and go FI. Get a blower or a turbo setup. Both go for 4k. You will spend what 550 on intake, 240 on pullies, 150 ccmv's, 220 gear +400 install with install kit, TI No Idea, driveshaft 600, LT's 1.2k, muffler delete?
Not worth it go FI and forget about gaining 40hp for 3k and start thinking about gaining over 100 for 4k.

RE: how does my mod list rate up?
keep in mind your long-term goals. if you're going to go s/c, don't get UDP's, you'll have to take them off later. also since it's an auto and you plan on getting an s/c, don't get gears lower than 3.73 or else you'll run out of gear way too quick. i'd take the money from the UDP's and use that to get some adjustable LCA's to put that future power down and adjust your rear axle for the new DS.
