Borla UEL headers. Love the sound the car makes when pushing into 4.5k to redline rpm range. Also when I get my revised tune it should help in the tourqe valley

I think lowering my car was my favorite mod and also one of my first mods.

A good mature sounding exhaust.. But Too pricey.. No real gain over the axle back for less than half the cost of the milltek.. IMO.. |

My favorite mod is the driver mod. It helps me stay out of trouble and it was completely free to boot!

Berk Muffler Delete. That totally changed the car for the better. Best $100 you will ever spend.

Can you talk a bit about the pros/cons? How much are you lowered? Using what? Any regrets?

Pros: better look, even lower center of gravity, "balanced" feeling when taking corners. Cons: speed bumps/pot holes... you will scrape your underbody, and you will learn to get used to it. Also, you have to worry about fitment if you decide to go with an aggressive wheel setup. I'm lowered on Standard R3 coilovers. Completely eliminated wheel gap. I feel more comfortable taking corners at faster speeds. No regrets, actually makes me more aware of everything in front of me. And I know what my skid plate sounds like. |

con's: Your suspension components will wear out quicker, you will scrape which is nbd until you start losing pieces of your car on the fwy, depending on the quality of your coils or springs/shocks your ride could get bouncy and uncomfy.

A pair that go together that really make one
![]() The TRD Intake and Exhaust. But what I'm really looking forward to is the OEM Audioplus Sound System I won at the FT86 Nation raffle yesterday. I have a strong feeling that will soon be my favorite mod!

Tires. Michelin pilot super sports on OEM wheels. Came out $5 per tire cheaper than OEM primacys. Being my first RWD car, I was really glad to gain some grip in the wet.
