How to maximize 0-60, 0-100, throttle response
So I am going to come at this from another angle, i have mainly been looking at HP gains which is nice and all but my real goals in order are 0-60, 0-100 and throttle response. I read that adding HFC and Y Pipe actually decrease low end torque which is needed for acceleration correct? so i wanted to see with my goals in mind what would be the best for my car. The things I am looking into are:
About to get:
Stillen Gen 3 Intake
Greddy Ti-C Exhaust - mainly for sound
Thinking about:
Berk HFC
ED or Tanabe Y Pipe
Eibach springs for lowering
What would you recommend for maximizing 0-60, 0-100, throttle response

From what i read everyone was getting better performance with the stock settings on the cobb. I would need to get a professional tune + cobb correct? i might do that in the future but i am trying to stay away from messing with the wires or ecu for now

You actually dont need to buy any Cobb or anything for a professional tune. They should be able to do it all in-house.
Where are you located? I am getting my G tuned by Sharif at Forged and they use UpRev software, but don't require you to bring in anything but the car

Why would you want to maximize throttle lag

haha was just pulling your leg
For throttle response, it's quite complex in our cars as the VVEL plays lots of funny games. Companies have claimed to have done so but unfortunately no solid proof to this very date (one can't tell better response from a dyno, if you're willing to trust butt dyno's though thats up to you, I wouldn't, not even my own lol)
Improving 0-60, you're looking at a shorter diff gear, some sticky tires and less vehicle weight.
