First thing i always do is lower the vehicle, for the most dramatic change, for not too much $$$.
Everything previously recommended like sways or intakes is great, if performance is your main goal. Bigger tires, i would never do if you plan on getting rims in the future (i wouldnt waste the money on new tires now), but aesthetically your car will look no different with any of these mods. When you lower the G, it makes it look 10x sleeker.
Personally i dont care for the car too much when its stock height.
I went with H&R springs first, then moved on to Tanabe Coils next.
Just my $.02

Stillen gen 3, and either eibach or hotchkis sways is what i'm gonna go for. I think with their cost in addition to the 1,350$ for the tires i would've spent enough for now
Btw, what about the Takeda or R2C intakes?! or should I stick to the Stillen gen 3 ??

you will hear a lot of arguments between R2C and Stillen Gen 3 as the best intake. Completely different. I have the Gen 3 and it is a cold air intake with the filters behind the grill. Picks up power above 4k rpm's, and I love the way you can see them sitting behind the grill.
R2C is a short ram intake and from what I have heard has more mid range gains. They also look great but they are hidden under the hood.
Decide which you prefer and the choice is up to you. Both great products
