Pick up a used IX turbo cheap. There will still be enough for set of springs and possibly wheels if you go used.

I have buschur tune, 3" TBE, intake, hks 272, buschur MBC, IX blow off, and apr head studs. I'm up for power mods, but am leaning towards suspension/wheels. Anybody got any ideas (best bang for buck) for the 1-2k price range? I'm interested in everyones opinions and what they would do from here. Oh yeah i also have exedy twin disc hd installed. Love this forum, it has been a huge help for trouble shooting and gen info for the car, and just wantt to say thanks to everyone especially David Buschur.

This is too cool. I have a twin too, we turned 22 back in late Feb. My twin is younger by 3 minutes and owns a Pearl White Evo VIII and I own a GG Evo IX. We don't typically buy gifts for each other on our bdays though lol...My twins name is Randy, and I'm Danny.

Anyway....if you have between 1 - 2k, depending on what you eventually want out of the car there are tons of options. If you want to drag the car, you could consider saving the $$$ for a shep build tranny/t-case...coilovers are always nice ($1200 new)...uhh aftermarket wheels are nice but I like the stock IX wheels and the stock VIII wheels.

I know with my IX I'm considering getting my stock BBS's powdercoated black, that would look good too for whichever one of you has the IX.

Do you have any maintenance coming up? My 60k mile service is coming up soon, so I'm getting Kelford 272 camshafts, ARP Headstuds, and GSC Beehive Springs installed, along with the service of course, and a retune.

Just some ideas I figured I'd throw your way...

+1 for twins!

Danny
