So i just got my new BRZ about a month ago. I am planning on modding the car a bit but not for another year or so. However i'm not super rich so im gonna start saving now lol.

Was wondering what mods you guys have done?
I'm looking for something thats not super invasive but can increase the performance of the car. Not looking for massive power spike. Something more like an additional 30-50 HP and about the same for Torque.

The mods i'm thinking about are:
New Exhaust
Cold Air Intake
Air Filter
ECU Mod (may not do this because ive read about issues where the car will essentially reject the tune and then your car is undrivable. Also this sounds like the most invasive mod so i may not do it)
Black side front and back skirts (more for the aesthetic)

Also any advice on where to buy and what companies would give me the most bang for my buck.

Please excuse me if i sound super noob at this. This is the first car (and the first time i can afford) that i can even attempt to mod and i kinda have no idea where to start or what to do. I also wont be DIYing these installs because i'm not a handyman by any means.

Thanks for any help!!
