To be perfectly honest, this is what I should have done. Thank god I still have the stock wheels.

Ryan Gate's Ralliart Sportback:



That is about as good as I have seen any Ralliart to date. The wheels are stock, so no need to worry about new ones.

People say a lot of things, like, "Yeah, you have to get that part. It does/gives _____." with absolutely no explanation behind it. I think that the Injen CAI is a colossal waste of money. I am not positive that it doesn't require tuning afterwards, either. If you want a new air filter that you can clean and not replace and that flows much better of stock, you can't go wrong with a $50 drop-in air filter.

Don't just impulsively blow your money every time you get some. Save it and do many things at the same time (comes out much better in the long run).

I can't believe that I am saying this, but a modification list would be great.

steve, if you spend the money on a hunk of crap like the injen noise maker i will disown you!

Youll need to get retuned with it, so it will end up costing an *** load for what..3-4 hp not worth it.

Get the rims you nerd. the difference in weight will give you better butt dyno result then an intake ever could.

I vote wheels. Its crazy how much of a diff a good drop and a wheel with an aggressive offset can make. The Advans are nice but a little much for me
