WHich do you guys think is more important?

I'm debating on whether to buy an intake (AEM V2, I already have 180, so it'll just be a few weeks), OR upgrading my sound system from the Bose, OR tinting my windows/buying the sun-roof-vizor.

All three are viable options, but what do you think I should do first (I'de probaly get the second one in 5 months or so...seeing as how I'm still a student and rarely work).

can do without it, tint's cheap, and upgrading the system's gonna be a whole lot more

TINT, its gonna make your car stand out more and make it a bit more of your own, people are gonna notice the difference while with the v2 only you notice. makes the car look hotter.

I agree with redcl2.3 on the tint. Intake sounds cool for a few seconds but most people are not going to notice. The sound system is going to be much more once you start looking at all the cool stuff. I think the best upgrade for the money is a nice set of rims but that's a different story.

It really depends on what you want the most. Forget that sunroof visor it takes away and I quote "its cheezy". If you want power get the intake. If your like me you will get alot of back pressure and will need a new, less restrictive muffler. If you want a good look get tint. As for the sytem good luck finding something to replace the bose for 180.

wel if all you want is increase the "floss factor" and make other people think your car is cool, than do all the cosmetic mods in the world, but youll still know that its slow as shit, intakes are great...
