Hi guys, I have $300 (Not alot I know, but it's what I've got) to spend on some sort of performance thingy for my EA. Just wondering what would give me the most grunt for $300.

"Coming soon: XH Snorkel, K&N panel filter, Pacemaker extractors, High flow cat, 2½" Redback exhaust, Wade cam."
Try and get as much of the above possible for your $300... reground cam and a second hand cat back exhaust would use up your $300 quickly and give you the best bang for your buck IMO...

$300 bought me a nice high flow 2.5" exhaust that made a fair difference to the feel of acceleration. That was until the old cat blew a chunk of crap out the back and it cost another $300 for a cat.

You could get a redback 2.5" catback for around $280ish then spend $20 on a pod filter, you'll be set.

I say start with the extractors if you have a 2.25" exhaust system, if you only have a 2" exhaust then start with exhaust and see what dollars are left over.

Is your car lowered?
If not I would invest in a set of lowered springs. Something like King Superlows look alright and will retain some practicality.

Get a second hand 2.5" cat back exhaust, and get a CAM!
Best 2 mods you can do along with a pod filter and 3" pipe off the intake manifold Get like a regrind through WADE, 1636 or some shiit, or you'l probably find a second hand CAM laying around on the forums somewhere! |
