Post what mod should i get my dad for his B-DAY?

hey i registered a long time ago and i haven't really kept up with all the new mods that are out. i was wondering what kind of cheap mods i could get my dad for his b-day. i saw the smaller pullies and the CAI. i was thinking the CAI cause that would pry be the easiest to install and the make the biggest difference. thanks for any opinions.

CAI is a good idea, or you can try the spring or sway.....

If you don't think he'd like appearance stuff he probably wouldn't like the roaring sound from the intake when he puts his foot in it. Go for the springs or sways, not major difference in appearance and will handle much better.

    oh is it really that loud? i mean i put my CAI and you could definetly tell the difference in sound, but it wasn't too dramatic except when you start it up in the morning and the recirculation system is going. he's kinda deaf too so i doubt he'll really notice the sound change that much. lol i'm kidding he's only like...51 i think.

    It's load only when it hits V-tech in WOT! Both options are good. Lowering the car will make it look really nice too!
