Hello New Member and Welcome to the forums.
1st place to start reading in would be the header, intake & exhaust forum...there you will find a large amount of solid information..

I would suggest before doing any sort of modifications, you decide how far you want to go with it. Because it makes no sense to spend money on modifications that you'll end up removing later when you do something else. I.E. spend money on an intake system and headers, then throw them out when you install a turbo.

This is a Good suggestion that he offers to you..How much money do you have to waste and that you don't have to worry about where it goes?

Not sure on how much I have to spend right now...only have 30,000 mi on the car and will keep for a long time...what are we talking about with the cost/perf. of a turbo vs. headers, CAI and Exhaust? I understand there will be big differences with quality, etc...

I basically want more low end torque, better throttle response, shorter throws on the shift (already looked into Neuspeed) and better braking. I will be looking at new tires but will not change out the rims which are...I am flexible with the amount I can spend but, my debate is, how much can I really get with a FWD car...
