I cant decide what mods to get. I am for sure getting the sport lip as i can get it for $255.

But i cant decide if i want

"A") Kics 15mm spacers for the rear stock wheels. $187

Or

"B") Tanabe Medalion Axle Back $650

I will obviously hear it from the wife if i go the option "B" route...

WWYD?

 

Tanabe. You'll get to enjoy the sound every time you drive the car.

 

yes this option

 

I noticed your next door in Austin. Is the invidia you have a Q300 or gemini?

 

IMO the tips look way oversized on the sedan version of the Tanabe exhaust plus it's only an axle back exhaust. I would just say few hundred more and get a full catback exhaust like FI, Invidia, or Stillen. Also shop around the marketplace, there are great deals on used spacers, exhausts, etc all the time. If you get lucky, you might be able to do both with your current budget.

 

Surfjax87 post has now got me looking into invidia. those tips look perfect.

 

Go with the tanabe axle back! I love the sound of it on my sedan!

 

id say suspention first... youd be alot happier when you notice how your g drives after modding suspention...

that said, my coils are for sale!

 

what will spacers do for the rear with the stock wheels?

 

it pushes the wheels out so the wheels sit flush with the rear fenders...

 

It's the q300. Any Invidia's sold now should have the upgraded x pipe and resonated y pipes from the gemini. Had it for a year and couldn't be happier.

OP, I'm sticking with the tanabe suggestion if you want to stick with one of the two options you posted, but I installed eibach sways last week and the handling is much improved.

 

^ that. if the budget is limited, the sways are probably the best cheap mod for overall vehicle performance improvement. it's next on my list.

 

If those are the only two option then exhaust.

 

If you don't mind me asking, can you point me to where you are getting the sport lip for $255?

Thanks!

 

Get both!
