put this in here b/c i really didnt want ppl other than you guys/gals in the midwest in this thread, theres too much flaming going around, and i know you guys can probably help me install it. my birthday is coming up and i usually buy something for myself, hey who better knows what i want for my birthday than myself right, hehe. anyways, i wanted to buy something for the car and most of you have seen what i have on my car so i was wondering what i should get. i'm more into appearance but wouldn't mind trying a cai or wai and exhaust like oldsman has suggested. and i know i desprately need to be lowered, and my current neons need to be replaced so many things but i only want to do one. and i've always wanted juice ever since silent got them but 4500 scares me :P whatever you guys suggest let me know where i can pick it up and how much, thanks guys. oh yeah i guess my price range is something less than 400?

Sirius is better. B)

Oldsman · 06-02-2004, 12:32 PM

i would say springs. you got the rims (bling,bling) so i would lower it and that would just look sweet.

alero168 · 06-02-2004, 01:18 PM

you think i can do springs and wai or cai/exhuast for about 400? i'm willing to do 500 i guess if needed

alero168 · 06-02-2004, 01:18 PM

and no i'm not getting xm i hate what's on the radio anyway, and dont want to pay monthly for it either. that's why i have a HD that plays mp3s

alero168 · 06-02-2004, 01:30 PM

and i dont want to get the B-kit without lowering it first

Oldsman · 06-02-2004, 01:35 PM

you could get springs and WAI for under $400. it depnds on what springs you goto. they range from $140 to $220

CAI $230-$250
WAI $100-150

far as exhaust, depends on if you are going with cat-back or just muffler. I would say min of $150 all the way up to $500 for exhaust

He can get springs and a CAI for Under $400, now that Nick is selling CAI's for the 3400 for cheap.

Oldsman · 06-02-2004, 04:42 PM

3400 CAI won't work on a 2.4

I deffinatly say springs Charlez!! will look so much better with ur wheels. I got a spring compressor if ya need...helps ALOT! Springs will run ya bout $200, give or take a bit on which u choose. Keep in mind u should get an alignment. I wasnt gonna, but my car pulls to the right now so I'll prolly get that done this weekend.

But I deff say springs.

or if u wanna feel faster.....deffinatly a CAI.

alero168 · 06-02-2004, 09:46 PM

yeah i think i'll def. get springs and i probably take to shop since i have no idea what i'm doing and i'll probably get alignment when i get new tires

06-03-2004, 12:41 AM

I would say since your more show than go, go with springs and a WAI, WAI has a better tone to the sound I think, that would be cool. go for the intimidation factor :thumbsup:

aLeRogrL21 · 06-07-2004, 01:38 PM

SPRINGS!!!
