to go faster or look better
Here is the latest pics of my car (sorry - stupid sunlight ruining my pics):

My wife gave me $400 for my car as a little present. Here's the dilema, I am military and my car is heading back to its motherland Asia (Korea, not Japan - but close enough). Do I get a Type V CF lip or a set of Helix intercooler pipes? A stock evo is pretty much the fastest over there. My current go fast mods are hks rs intake, TB, PWR intercooler and a turbotrix flash. When I got flashed I put down 298whp and 293ft-lbs. Since then I got rid of my cat and put in a UR testpipe and JDM MR DV. Suspension is ralliart coilovers, Cusco type 1, 2, rear sway, rear strut, and trunk bars. Looks are hyperblack rota torques, cf front canards, cf exhaust cover, varis cf pillars, evodave mr head and tails, black emblems and black UK badge.
Normally, I say power all the way but this Korea thing gives me no clue. They will have absolutley no clue what an Evo or even Mitsu is - Do I make it stand out more?

I lived in Korea for a year and there really isnt a huge car scene there. The traffic is crazy and the roads suck!!!! Your question is a hard one to answer because of the last two statements I made. I would go with what makes you happy.
I lived in Korea for 3 years before this current assignment - and had an eagle talon over there, I know about the roads and the scene, it does suck and I am not looking forward to going back in Feb but oh well. There isn't that many fast car over there. With a near stock talon I would only run into a faster car maybe every 5-6 months; then again I wasn't looking for them.
