Id suggest - injectors, high flow cat, dump pipe, and cooler, those parts can be found second hand and mite only cost $1500-2k, new it would be around $3500-4k. The car would gain around 100rwkw from those mods Edited 26/12/17 11:36 PM by BAXRTUTE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
