Got a 2003 TL Type - S Anthracite. Was wondering what should be my first mod? Does the stock K&N air filter increase performance?

Also, where do you sugest I look for rims, and I want to replace my stock tires, what should I replace them with ?

peace.

Headers or an Icebox/CAI (cold air intake) should be first.

1. Lower the car, by either getting lowering springs (170-240 dollars) or replace the entire strut assembly with a coilover system (825)
2. 18" wheels and tires
3. Comptech sway bars
4. CAI
5. Headers
6. Supercharger

I want to get bigger performance tires, what brands do you recommend ? Someone suggested Continental extremes 235-45-17 ? What do you recommend?

It depends on what you're looking for. If you want all-season, get the Conti Extremes. My brother has 215/50/17 on his car and they are pretty good.

But if you want to get summer-dedicated high performance tires (this means you must have winter tires), get the likes of Yokohama AVS ES100. Go to www.discounttiredirect.com. They are a sponsor on this site.

Personally, I would suggest getting 18-inch wheels w/ summer tires. And buy winter tires for your stock 17-inch wheels. Best of both worlds.

Bodykit: OEM
Intake/Headers/Exhaust: Comptech
Tints: Regular dark tints seem to look better than the metallic film on the Anthracites...but thats just my opinion.
Radar: Pretty much a Escort 8500 or V1 crowd here...
Springs: H&R, Comptech
Tires/Wheels: Wheels should be something only you should be able to decide. You want 18's, 19's, chrome? etc. As for tires, I recommend Dunlop SP Sport's, ContiExtreme Contacts, or Sumitomo +HTR's.

Happy modding and welcome to the boards!
