Considering I've already done some work, I'd go with headers + stage 2 tune, OEM arm rest, and probably shift knob/reverse lockout. Maybe a piece or two of JPM alcantara trim pieces, depending how much I have left at that point.

This right here!

Run the e85 map along side the open flash header and you'll have 40 more horsepower for $1000

I have: catback, side markers, tint, cai with inlet..I think my next upgrade is tires/rims.

Big fan of STi so I will someday have enough for the sti wheels from japanparts!

Most people recommend pss tires right?

STI themselves recommend 225/40/R18 PSS square setup for their 18" rims.

If I have $1000 bucks mod money right after getting the car, I would get tires first also (215/45/R17 PSS is just shy of $1000 installed here in Canada).

i blew that in the last month alone..
just in the last week was $650 in parts for a planned rgbw boomerang color swap, then before that was $350 for a sub enclosure, $400 in audio gear, and $250 beatsonic spoiler for a 3rd brake light mod...

$1,000 goes way too quickly....
