Any suggestions?

Hey all. Welcome me to the group I just picked up my '03 Aegean Blue CL-S 6spd non-Navi today, it's awesome. Any suggestions on what I should do first? I was thinking headers, then intake, then maybe the sways and some springs on Konis. Any suggestions?

my 2 cents

this topic has been beaten like a ugly red headed step child in texas but here's my suggestion and what i've seen others do.

1: cai
2: tires
3: springs

too much engine hp addition w/o tires or suspension mods make it pretty useless. i'm not a fan of straight speed racing. I like turning and driving more. i put the cai on and then took it off for emission testing and noticed that i lost like 2-3 m/g

Welcome! Congratulations on your new car!
As for mods, it depends if you want speed or handling:
speed: cai, headers, pulleys, exhaust, etc.
handling: sways, springs, shocks, tires, wheels, etc.
Good luck with the car and enjoy!
