I have come up with a list of stuff I want done to in in the coming year and would like opinions, suggestions and any advice from you guys! Thanks!
• Full exhaust- Magnaflow Cat Back
• Turbo- Not sure (suggestions?)
• Brake pads- Not sure
• Coil overs or lower the car- Not sure if I want coilovers or just a drop in the car
• Sound System- Not sure, probably only 1 speaker in the back because of space
• Window Tint-35%
• Tires- Not sure, want some high performance tires, 18" and wide.
• Wheels- Avant Garde M310
• Intake system- Perrin Cold Air Intake
• Widebody- Not sure about this what do you guys think? Pretty expensive
• Bodykit- ALso not sure, very pricey.

Don't replace the header if you are going turbo because the turbo header replaces whatever header you already have installed (stock or aftermarket). You will just be throwing money away on an aftermarket header if you decide to install a turbo later.
If you install the turbo yourself, make sure you have a backup car and your own garage because it will take a few days or 1-2 weeks to install depending on how busy your schedule is. The car will be on jackstands almost the entire time. And take time to wrap the downpipe and headers in thermal wrap and wrap the rubber tubing and wires in thermal tape.
