Uh, dude, can you be any more vague?

What do you consider 'basic bolt-on mods'? Engine? Suspension? Audio? Etc, etc, etc.?

Also, 'improve' how? Straight line? Autocrossing? Comfort?

Let's get specific here!!!

You have stillen headers? If so, you're one of the first. Didn't think they were out yet.

There are no working chips out and Stillen hasn't released the headers and probably won't for a few more months. I don't know why they listed them on their site 6 months early.

it's rather obvious why, isn't it? They do it for this purpose, to make people really want them. You know as soon as they drop, every kid on here is going to run and **** all their cash on the product... It's almost like they don't even have to market the thing, we do enough hyping on these forums and they get that money.

Good point!!

Kind of like the 'Dom' mentality so well expressed in "The Fast and the Furious"..."he is golden...kids see him run...they all want it"

Yes I have watched that movie more than once just to find the faults in Ricer psyche and all that surrounds it.

Pretty pathetic.

I won't be getting them. I dread having to take them off every 2 years for emissions.
