well the "best" headers, most would say Comptech. but i dont have any experience in this area. as for intakes, if you want max performance, id suggest Comptech IceBox, but if you want a sound get either the AEM or the Injen Cold Air Intake.

If you want the best, cost is not a concern - Comptech is definately
the way to go. I have had no problems of regrets with ANY of my
Comptech mods.

Comptech headers, exhaust, and S/C and icebox and tranny cooler. no body mods other than wheels - I like the "sleeper" look.

awesome! you'll fit right in at the meet. there are mostly CL's but thanks to my effort in gettin TL's out there we will probably outnumber the CL's this time which wheels you got? sorry for hi-jacking the thread.

but in answer to your questions, bondoboy, if you have the money, go all out on the Comptech and you will not regret it.

8-spoke Focal, made by American Racing. I figured since they are about the same age as me, I couldn't go wrong!
My darling wife got me the car for x-mas last year, but said it needed shiney
wheels, who am I to argue.
The mods are a different story, she has no clue or I would probably be writing from prison.

Very good choice. As for the axle back that could be debated but headers and ice box for sure.

My wife is more like the "stepford wives", she would probably be ok if she found out, but she would expect appoval to spend an equal amount.
I say for the record - I am selfish!!

ha ha, My wife is the same way with mods, if i do a mod guess what? She spends at least that much, if not more. She has so many damn clothes, she had to expand into my closet, as hers is over flowing. Biatchs.

Best mods are:

1. driver training
2. education so you can get a good job and afford even more mods!
3. sways, shocks, springs, tires in no particular order

Best mod by far, so far as performance is concerned is headers. Unless you have the big bucks & can afford a supercharger.
