What would ya'll do to the car??? (next mod)

hey, I have a little bit of money to work with since I just sold some parts. and I was wondering about some of ya'lls input.

the car is already fully built block/head turbo kit, cams, etc...

I was thinking I'd maybe do one of the 3.

1. upgrade my HTA GT3582R turbo to the HTA GT3586R (good for 30-40 HP) BUT I think you lose 200-300 rpm spoolup.

2. get a carbon fiber front lip

3. Get the JDM rear bumper (looks a lot better than the US version IMO)

was just wanting some input because I'm having trouble deciding. I posted this up on here and on evolutionm.net .... please let me know ya'lls opinon.

Thanks,
John

I always try to mix it up. Last week I ordered some exterior parts from Rexpeed & and this week I got a dbl pumper to complement my Fp Red and 1200cc inj. on e85. Good luck on your decision.

coil over/ suspension and big brakes. it looks like you got the power. now you need something to maneuver it and then stop. just my 2 cent.

i would say go for some nice looks but your car is sick so idk how anyone could tell what bumper you got when youre a fricken blur flying past them lol. How about some nice interior parts thats what you spend the most time looking at any how.

thanks for all the comments, I'm prolly leaning towards the rear bumper but the upgraded turbo is tempting!!!

yep

engine wise/drivetrain wise it's pretty much all built....only thing I could really do more is maybe get a different driveshaft or axles

BUT I'll worry about the axles when they break lol
