What comes first (directed more towards AB, but all opinions needed)
 
Ok, so what comes first? Appearance or performance? I kno i can afford both in their own time... but what should i do first if im shooting primarily for a showcar?

for example, I need new tires and im looking at some rims, but should i get exhausts first? exhaust being the easiest and cheapest and tires/rims probably more on the spendy side.

On a side note.. if i get duals, and plan on supercharing over all, between exhuast and charger when would headers be useful if at all?

go for performance first, because if you go for looks first, people might think you have something and if you race, then you got nothing. So performance first, definitely

i did a little of both, my car was bone stock when i got it. but my visual mods are done accept for a drop and maybe wheels. but i wont do those until i finish performance. it just depends on whats more important, looking good or going fast. or like me, a little of both.

It all depends on what are you going to do to your car. If you are adding a body kit and paint job, I suggest you do those towards the end, since you are going to be working on you engine, you dont want to risk damaging the fresh new paint do you?
I would suggest engine first, then rims, then body, and finally interior/ audio.

preformance first sleeper look is best IMO,

well.. considering your car is already 9 years old, you probably won't have it long enough to build both. especially if you go with appearance mods first.

I think it depends on the car. A 05+ stang GT is already pretty fast stock, so there is nothing wrong with working on the appearence first, but if you have a 94-98 auto v6, i would definitly work on the performance aspect. Thats just my opinion though.
