just wondering guys or gals, if u guys had $2000 to spend on a stock manual gpx what would u spend it on. Performance wise dat is. All on Air, exhaust extractors, what would be most rewarding and not to expensive as i have a buget for performance aspect of my modding phase. Which is the best way to go. I would like to notice a difference in power after mods.

definitely an exhaust system and pod air filter... you will definitely feel the on-road improvements, plus it sounds oh-so-horny with an aftermarket exhaust system...

for the exhaust system you don't wanna go any larger than 2.5" for the cat back or you will lose plenty of torque in the low-mid rpm... i'm not sure about the CAI kit from UAS but a pod filter alone will set it off nicely.

brand wise, well it all comes down to what you can afford or how important brand-names are to you... frankly it shouldn't matter what brand you opt for, just make sure the workmanship is top-notch (which you get with Jap brands like 5-zigen / HKS / Apex'i but you will pay for it).
