i say you should slam it first. you can get decent springs for about 150 and use the rest on installation if you arent willing to do it yourself.

If you're looking for style, go with springs
If you're looking for performance, to start get a CAI
If you're looking for sound, definitely a new headunit, or if you have that, speakers...

yea, or you can take the 700 bucks youd spend on a cat back and intake and buy a nitrous system and upgraded clutch.

hmmmmmmmm....

700 for I/E that gets you MAYBE 10 BHP

or 500 (less if used) for an N20 system and 250 for the clutch that will let you run a 50 shot (50 WHP BTW) with ease and safty.
