Default "Best Bang For the Buck"

Ok, I know there have been 87654321875314 threads about what mods to do, but I was just wondering what everyone thinks would be the best bang for the buck...

-Duel Exhaust Cat-back (would get long tubes when I get H/C/I end of summer)

-Tuner - Whats the difference between the SCT SF3 and the X3?

-8.8" rear end w/ 4:10 gears...

-Or appearance crap... Grill Delete, Chin Spoiler (or 99/01 cobra bumper), Rear Window Louver, Lowering springs/shocks/struts/rear sway...

Probably only enough $ for one of those...

Best bang for your buck deff the gears youll notice a more aggressive pick up off the line then a stock v6 since youll have both wheels spinning and those gears.

After that if you dont already have that exaust system done yet then id say work on that next since most people get those easy mods done first, like the duels, CAI, then appearance mods, then the tuners and such. Hope that helps.

I like the tuner idea, or maybe some 3.73 gears. A little better fuel economy.
