Most important was eliminating the sound tube. Next was a cover for the cavity in the center console that doubles as an arm rest.

Biggest bang for your buck. Sound tube delete which cost less than $1.

What's so great about this delete? I've heard of a lot of guys doing it but I'm not sure what the benefits are

17x9 Enkei Kojins on 245/40 Toyo T1 Sport tires. It's totally transformed the car's handling and really made it come alive.
