Nice list. When you do the short shifter, upgrade the bushings while you are in there. ....and make sure you get the RRM upgraded perches for the rear sway.

From what I have read.....most of the Evo guys who have Megan's seem to like them. You should be able to find a set of Megan's for around 900 shipped.

i think rrm sells the sway bar and perches as a package deal now. im assuming he is buying the megan kit from rrm as well so 900 is about what they charge

Yea, almost all of it is from RRM...i figured if im going to spend the dough, i might as well buy it all from one place....that way when i do the engine they might be more inclined to hook it up. i still havent decided if im going to go N/A or turbo. i didnt want to start doing crap to the engine only to have to change it later if i decided to go turbo. i checked out some reviews on the Tein SS coilovers and they seem to be more for "real" track racing and although i want to do that eventually, most of the time my car will be on the street. the reviews i read on the megans was that they were good all round, best for the dollar. thanks again for all your help guys! ill keep you posted and put up some pics when im done.

LSD is better than open Diff, in every situation no matter what!!

and with all the money we are talking here, I wont be thinking on putting it on a Ralliart!, I would sell the Car and buy something faster, or something that wont eat my money and show miserable gains....

dude, i've had my ralliart since 04 when it first came out, back when they called it an evo lite. of the 4 years i have had it, i have driven it less than 2 between a dui i got 3 years ago and the year and a half deployment to iraq. i love my car, it has 27k miles, its paid off and it rocks. i would never trade it in! down the road im going to get a bike or something but im keeping the ralliart. and going from 15.5 second quarter mile to a 13 in less than 4k is not miserable gains. im going to spend more than 4k because i feel like it haha

buying the headers would be a waste of money if you are going to turbo your car, it is replaced with a manifold

^ what do you mean? the fastest stock run I have seen to date is a 14.9 by some guy in Quebec. 15.5 is very reasonable.

I totally agree. If you ever have to sell your car, your wallet will like the resale valve much better as well.
