Really not sure why people feel compelled to pay $1000 for a suspension set up that's going to be worse than a set of quality aftermarket springs for 1/5 the price. If you're on a budget DON'T BUY COILOVERS.

As far as buying a turbo/exhaust/wheels/anything else immediately after purchase, drive the car in its current form for a while before you make massive changes to the car. The car is nearly perfect from the factory and really only needs minor tweaks.

Want some really good dd mods? Try clutch spring removal, clutch pedal lowering, stage 1 tune, adjusting mirrors to have no blind spot, correcting your seating position, and removing the cotton ball in your sound tube. These are all completely free and much better for a dd than exhaust drone or a massive turbo. You should not spend a penny on mods until every single one of these are done.
What he said on a budget. Also enjoy the stock car for awhile and think this through. Rushing out and buying cheap coilovers just because?

Check out Race Comp Engineering and maybe give them a call:
