Nobody is going to see the sexy underwear. I mean how different would your car be with those mods and mine with the nice wheels and tint only?
Lol! Nuns and Victoria secret!

I like to do some spirited driving on the weekends and feel like I finally have an awesome car to do that. I think some of these tasteful mods everyone had mentioned sound great. I want the sound and a few extra hp.

So after hearing everyone's input it will probably do the

Hks hi power or legamax. I really wanted akrapovich but wow they are
expensive!

Motordyne art test pipes

A cold air intake that I don't have to remove bumper

I have also been looking at new tires. Car has 12k miles on it. Has the Bridgestone re050 I think. I am guessing they have at least 50% tread left. But don't really like the feel. Looking at the Michelin pss or Bridgestone s04.

Anything else you Guys recommend tuning wise or cosmetic?

Great forum, appreciate the feedback and help.

I've owned both, both are great tires. The pss tend to get the nod around here but I honestly feel like they both perform about the same. To me the s-04s win out because they're usually less expensive. My experience is based purely on spirited driving on public roads and I dd my car for some perspective. My recommendation is not based on track performance.
