Intake Exhaust Headers Suspension mods All chito is missing now is the Supercharger lol. What's up chito? Lol. If you want dizzy talk to Mike at Haddad Motorsports. He'll point you in the right path and is a great guy. He will tell you straight up what to do and what not to do so you don't waist money. Myself & chito have gotten work done by him and I highly recommend em to any HeadTurner.

One MAJOR aspect I've learned during the modding process was to support the foundation (aka suspension) of your car first and foremost for the plans you have in the future. Upgraded suspension heavily many people think is just if you are going the forced induction route, which is highly false. I would REALLY suggest purchasing the "hard hitting" items first, and in other words fix the slop at the rear end and cure the steering response. Solid subframe bushings, solid differential mounts (increase noise but may be worth it. It is to me), and radius rod bushings are great steps to take. THEN, go with springs (or coilovers or bags), sway bars with ends links, rear trailing arms , and toe rods. The car will then be set up for almost anything you throw at it within a certain level of course like everything. You'll then be able to tackle forced induction or power mods like a champ AND actually make the car perform by transfering the new boatload of power your going to make to that precious ground. Suspension may cost a good deal, especially the bushings, but it's well worth it in the end if you are going to build the car up with more power. Power mods are useless if the car can't actually transfer it. hen, an upgrade for the brakes woulbe be the step after some power, so you can stop all the new power effectively and efficiently. Ha-ha. Luckily, we have decent brakes from the factory, but a simple upgrade to drilled and/or slotted rotors with more aggresive pads would be a huge step forward.

Thanks boss n the superchrger hopefully in the near future, but for now I wanna finish some stuff like install the new brake lines n toe links, paint my calipers. I just ordered the sct tune n the vmax tb n I'm getting the showstopper for the engine bay and the underhood bowtie and after that I think I have to chill for a bit and then the f14 rims and after hopefully the super charge. N for sure talk to mike he's a good guy n will point u in the right direction or if u want he has a supercharge on sale right now if not just talk to him and do your research for sure.

Well said tommy. Yes the suspension should b one of the 1st mods. Foundation foundation foundation!!! But yes those are expensive parts and labor as well but well worth it imo.
