What do I do with $400 (car wise)?

I have about $400 to spend. I'm not exactly sure what I want to get yet. Any suggestions?

Considering...
1. Navi Conversion/PS2 (Yes, it'll run a bit over for sure)
2. Valentine One
3. Some sort of sub system of some kind? (Basslink?)

All input is welcome!

Thanks guys!

I always though it would be cool to have PS2 in my car.

If I had $400 to spend, I'd go with a Walbro GS342 255 lph pump and get my tank sumped and the pump installed.

If I had your car, I'd prolly go with some springs.

I'd spend $199.

Let me know!

I'd get springs and tint. You really need swaybars too, though.

CAI and Springs. You'll go over $400 but not by too much.

Do what you're told!
I'd agree for $400+ a little depending on your install, I think you'd really feel that you got your money's worth with a CAI and new stiffer lower springs (stock car is just too sedany for a S version). Once you've gotten in to it and have more mods, maybe you too will be able to find value in headers, but I think it that's a ways off.

Thanks you guys!

I will take all these into consideration and let you know what I do end up doing!

If you have any more suggestions, please feel free to input!

Seems like this CAI is well worth its value! How much are Comptech exhausts by the way?

(Honestly...I'm still leaning toward that PS2/Navi conversion though )

Thanks all!
