Unlike bolt ons they are harder to reverse and just harder to live with.
What is the process for reversing a tune? An Ecuteck tune specifically if you or anyone else happens to know.

I'm putting my swift springs on my negative mods list. Too much rear drop...too bumpy on less than perfect roads.....killing me on finding shops that will agree to align.

If you have the funds....go with coilovers or air

What's your budget? Without knowing what you have to spend I can't really give the best list. But...

1- Takeda Long Tube Cold Air Intake $250-$300 used $350-400 new (nothing wrong with buying off the classifieds either) adds 14+ hp
2- full cat back exhaust ($700-$900 used $1500 new) I prefer Fast Intentions but you can get anything that's quality...HKS is amazing. You'll have to have someone bend the passenger side pipe just a little to make it clear your rear brace (only BC you have a vert) or you can take the rear Brace off. This was done without my knowledge and I can't tell the difference. Plus it will allow me to sell the CBE to any non-vert owners when I part out.

3- Long Tube Headers ($1000 used $1400 new) if you've got cash burning a hole in your pocket or just really really want power. Fast intentions makes them for our vert and they are supposed to add 20hp plus 22-24 torque. I've got them paired with all of the above plus a motordyne M370 intake manifold ($300-400 depending on new or used)

Go check out this thread immediately it'll get you on the right track. If you ever have any will this mod work on my convertible questions pm me. I've been Thru it all id say. Be prepared to do wxtra looking and/or research plus possibly paying more BC you decided to get the drop top. Totally worth it tho.

Thanks for the info, guys. Will def check out that thread.

Curious, when it comes to aesthetic mods, does the vert have a (oem) jdm taillight (with amber turn signals) option? That's basically the main one I'd want.

Top three mods would be those with the most benefit. While an exhaust sounds nice it shouldn't be the first mod. Suspension, suspension, and tires (with better wheels is always nice).

I'm not disagreeing with you, however... define "benefit". Try to do so in a way that allows for different automotive values, and good luck with that. Nathan, you're not the first person to share his opinion in the context of an absolute statement. Given the right skills, it can be a compelling technique. But in the end, it's just an opinion, neither more or less valid than another one.

Unless that top three mod involves Plastidip, in which case, all bets are off.
