Like the title says, what would you do if YOU had $10k to spend on a stock Evo X GSR?

 

Me PERSONALLY?

-Cobb Stage 2 package (2500) (AP and Cobb turboback)
-Intake
-boost/egt/afr guages
-Full dyno tune
-Wheels/tires
-Tint
-mudflaps


And that's it, since my SST won't hold much more power than that stock. Someone correct me if I've missed something.

 

-fp red
-injectors
-aquamist
-turboback
-eibach springs
-kelfords 214b's and springs
-pistons and rods
-twm short shifter
-defi gauge,aem afr
-clutch and master cylinder

should be it!!! maybe some cheap rims also :-)

 

Take 8k and throw it on the loan for the car.

Take 2k and buy a good cat back system, intake and a tune

 

+1

 

Ets dp, ets4in ic, artisan exhaust, fp black, injectors, MAP mani, injen ic/intake, clutch, 5%tint, eibach springs whiteline roll center kit, powdercoat stock rims, spacers, dyno tune and some gauges..

 

+ 1000 I would much rather cut down on the loan as much as possible while still giving my self some fun.

If the car is paid off then I would just take it to a reputable shop and see what can 10K do to accomplish whatever goal I got set in mind for the car.

 

+1.

 

This is good advice. I waited until mine was almost payed off before I started the serious modifications.

 

I would do exhaust, Coilovers, wheels, and tune. Then the rest, put toward the loan if you dont own it outright. That way, you have a drop and wheels to make the car look really good and the exhaust and tune to free up some more power..

 

15'' Rims at least 100 spoke
white wall tires, any brand will do
mudflaps
08 taillights
40mm spacers
mirror tint (with a haze color to match your car)
tweeters
extreme body kit
under glow neons
in grill neons
interior black lights

and with the good chunk of money left:
air bags

 

take the 10k and trade the evo on a used M3...

 

Nice !

Dont forget the alligator skin seats/interior and "riding dirty" stitch

 

said before. 7-8k towards the car. 2-3k for wheels springs, catback and a tune

 

Cobb 400S kit + an o2 elim downpipe + custom protune, and still have a few grand left over to put towards maintenance, loan payoff, etc.

I'd also get lowering springs, rear anti-sway bar, and a complete short-shifter/shifter bushing set (basically what I have right now).
