Need some help with the next step in my cars evolution. Have the Zephyr kit(mounting this week), did the exhaust, already have the dragon intake. Have $790 to put in. Just want to know how to get the best bang for the bucks I got.

I would change the filter on your dragon if you haven't already (k&n or apexi or something). Then get an underdrive pulley and an aerospeed header. You should still have some left for springs or a trd quickshifter if its a manual.

I'm going to check the prices on the underdrive pulley, and aerospeed header. I'll even factor on the springs. It sucks when you have to be cheep

That's almost enough to afford a TRD QuickShifter, or maybe you can get lucky and get one on eBay for around $110 shipped like I did.

Heres the link TRDRacing and the instructions that igotta5S-FEturbo gave me:
"Cli90ck on trd parts at the top. Then on the drop down box on the left sroll down to either sport springs or lowering springs to select what you want. I think all 4 springs are like 203 bucks" Its a great price. |

:: wondering whats so special about TRD springs ::
aren't they just Eibach pro springs rebranded under the TRD name? from looking at your ride, I would say your first priority should be a set of springs. your best bet is probably the Eibach Sportlines, since they lower 1.5" and retain stock-like ride. other than that, K&N, pulley, header if you can afford it. |
