If you want to lower your car and keep stock-ish ride quality, buy a set of tein s-techs and KYB GR-2 shocks and struts. Springs will run you ~150 and shocks/struts are ~200.
Suspension tech sway bars are also a great addition, those are ~310 so we're up to 660... use the 140 left and PM Defgeph and get one of his 3 point rear strut bars. That should leave you with 40 bucks to put into your gas tank to enjoy the curves! -------------------- 1991 MR2 - T-tops - Crimson Red - Gen3 3SGTE - Lots of money

its just like any exhaust, on a normal car it can add some HP, on the Celica, its for sound and looks. Most 6GC guys can't squeeze 5hp from intake and exhaust.
