Default Best mods with $350

hey all,
I'm kind of stuck with what I wanna do. I'm getting $350 soon and I'm trying to buy something that's going to be worthwhile. I was thinking springs and some takeoff sway bars??

Window tint and Side vents or Sirius and a Disc changer or strut bar and upper/Lower Links or maybe a nonflash intake.

I would definetly go w/ a tune if you could get one for that price, but eibach does make some good cheap kits, and you can get that sway bar for cheap a million places. I think for the money the suspension upgrades you listed would cause a more noticeable change in the car overall.

I think Mac offers a set of headers around that price for the 4.0 though I can't speak from experience on performance.

I would upgrade the sway bars and springs before I did the gears and t-lok. You'll see more immediate improvement in handling and response. But, of course, I'd eventually do all four (along with the cold air and tune).

if you can get gears and tlock for 350 installed i say do it but i think the parts alone is gonna be more than that unless he gets you ford discount too. If not get a tune you can add a cai later
