Exhaust or Lowered?

[*DD*]

okkkkkk! So I get my bonus next week (hopefully) and wanna do something to my car, Im thinking either full exhaust & induction kit or lowered on coilovers, its already lowered 15mil but it has to go lower as its just not low enough for me hehe wish i could get everything at the same time but can only afford one or the other :S which do i choooose?!?! :rasp:

Personally id get an exhaust + IK and some eibach sportlines ? they might lower you a bit more and even if they dont it will handle awesome

Edit: dont get an induction kit get a performance panel filter.

i had the same decision as you, went for sportlines and some brakes.

Remove the cold air feed if you want some noise

 

[Beef-Mc]

Getting low over noise for me.

depends on how much the bonus is.

if its like 5-700 quid then exhaust and IK.

if its 900+ then decent coilovers set up properly.

Coilovers would make more difference I think, but you could get a panel filter, zorst and Sportline springs maybe.

Lowering will look and feel great. But an exhaust will give driving a whole new level with that grunt!

No point in uprated coilovers unless your going to be tracking the vehicle or want a custom stance. Eibach prolines are the way forward

I would relocate the battery and make a decent induction system with a V6 espace box and go for a full exhaust with decat you will see healthy gain

coilovered cars dont handle as well as standard on your average uk roads if they are really low so depends how low you were thinking? (thats my experiance with FK's never used the likes of H&R)

 

[*DD*]

was wanting it pretty low, like 60/70mm, and was gunna get H&Rs or maybe GAZ as they are cheaper but not sure if they will handle as well as H&R's?? I already have it lowered 15mil on eibach's and it handles really well but its just not low enough for me lol do u think putting coilovers on and lowering it that much will ruin the handling even if set up properly?

hmmm it is a tough one though, i do like a rumbling exhaust and induction will only add to that, plus a small power gain with these mods wheras its more for the looks with the lowering.

my bonus is around £900.

ARGGGGGGG DECISIONS!!

performance panel filter doesnt do anything i got an ITG one and was left wondering why i spent £50 on nothing lol.

maxogen, decat and a remap?
