7 VII 7 Posted February 23, 2010 Report Share Posted February 23, 2010 Ok guys, time for a gift for myself for all my hard work I am really gearing towards suspension items over engine performance at first but I am flexible for both or either first. For suspension I do not want a suspension that I feel EVERY FREAKING BUMP in the road. DC Roads are horrible. I want something I can take a corner in and still not rattle my teeth as my DD right now. For performance I want something that is a great upgrade but also dependable and wont kill my car (I drive humble). If not an IPD tune I was thinking BSR. I am open to other performance upgrades I did not mention. I dont want an 18t because no where to take advantage of it here... A build is not an option because of lack of garage. So let me know what you guys think... I have been leaning towards Anti-Sway Bars 25/22 or 25/25 and Sconeman's Intake... but let me know... Thanks!

thewhiteguy1 Posted February 23, 2010 Report Share Posted February 23, 2010 i voted intake pipe and spacers. that way the car looks nicer while not losing any suspension powah. i know any of those mods will upset balance of bumps. when i was home this christmas after i had the ipd springs on, my parents rode with me and they were so like wtf are all these bumps?

Fudge_Brownie Posted February 23, 2010 Report Share Posted February 23, 2010 You said roads are horrible, so I voted IPD Sways and Tune for greatest hp per dollar, since I know you're cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a difference between cheap and not throwing your money down the drain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fudge_Brownie Posted February 23, 2010 Report Share Posted February 23, 2010 There is a difference between cheap and not throwing your money down the drain. Don't take it as an insult. There's also a difference between spending your money wisely and obsessive research for minute purchases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

855 Posted February 23, 2010 Report Share Posted February 23, 2010 What size are your comets? I am guessing they are the 7" wide ones if you are considering running 10mm spacers front and back? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am guessing they are the 7" wide ones if you are considering running 10mm spacers front and back? I don't run those 17x7.5 comets anymore. I am on standard volans now. I shouldn't rub with 10mm spacers with 215/45/17 tires right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mogatu'r Posted February 23, 2010 Report Share Posted February 23, 2010 Other = better turbo 16t / 18t... suspension = konis setup, I loved them on Reid's old car. Plus do you have the needs for bigger sways? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beadgc23 Posted February 23, 2010 Report Share Posted February 23, 2010 What are spacers doing in "performance"? Anyway, +1 on the iPd tune. I'm very pleased with mine, single biggest improvement to the car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black Betty Posted February 23, 2010 Report Share Posted February 23, 2010 Yeah the roads weren't that bad until after the snow storm. Kinda wishing I asked for Joey's struts So i could go back to stock for a bit. Let me know how you like the sways also im up for helping out with the swap if its after the semester is over.

7 VII 7 Posted February 23, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2010 I think I am going to go with Sconman's intake also... seems like a good install.. cosmetic and "performance" and not too pricey right now with the Anti-Sway bars. Thanks John I will hit you and Neubar and Brian up when I install them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
