Why are Progress or Eibach springs better than the stock springs? If I want to retain the soft ride in my Max SL but want better handling (i.e. less sway, tighter cornering, etc.), can I get that without changing the stock springs?
But w/ 220$, it's hard to get much of anything from the open market these days. For 220$, a custom intake (77mm) could be fabbed, but then it has to be monitored, etc. And THAT's where the $$ comes into play (WB/piggyback, etc). Most guys that ask for 'what to spend w/220$, can't decide what to buy, much less how to make it to the most efficiency. IMO, Suspension mods would be best....

I hate that feeling, as it's happened to me quite a few times in the past.

+1 on that man. If you are really currently unemployed I would save up the $ until you get back on your feet.... sometimes we 'guys' get caught up in the modding frenzy (been there myself) and don't realize how much $ you're really spending.
