Well, as it says, i got 800 bucks to spend on mods.

i have a intake, muffler (that i love) short shifter and strut bar.

im looking at header/downpipe (got a deal on both of thus for about 200 bucks)

so i got about 500 bucks to work with for mods....any suggestions???

not really you can rent a spring compressor from auto zone for cheap and basic hand tools can do the job. more betterishness if you have an impact

I had a guy from the local group install the springs on my 06 (springs were transferred to 07 by dealership) and it was very easy. Id do it myself next time for sure. As far as tracion mods go most will say a TTR engine mount which is supposed to be the best. I have the ingalls as my only and it keeps my stage 2/intake/catback to just wheepspin and no hop at all. Have it set to 12mm. I love it it.
