Ok, if I were you, here's what I would do:
Drop it (~$250)
UCA/LCA/PH Bar (~$400)
CAI/Tuner (~$550)
Midpipe of your choice (~$175-250)
Axle-back of your choice (~$175-500+)
Gears (~$200 + ~$500 install)
Tools, if you don't already have them (~$300)
All of these mods minus the gears can be done in your garage or front yard. Get some help and you can do it in a weekend. Check around for good deals (see list of vendor sites on 2005+ Talk page) and you may be able to throw something else visual in there. Car looks pretty good as-is IMO.
Hope it all works out for you.
How much extra horse power do ya suppose these mods might add me anyhow? Also I'm thinking about adding a front chin spoiler, gonna have to paint it i suppose (professionally), hopefully stripes won't be too much work either.

Like STL said, 25-28 seems to be the average. Trust me, it will feel like an entirely new car. I guarantee you won't be overly concerned with the numbers once you put your foot in it, especially with those gears.
I'm not sure who, but someone offers the chin spoiler already painted. Won't likely save much cash, but it will save you some time.
Be a cautious and smart shopper and you should be able to throw in those relocation brackets, chin spoiler or a shifter as well. :bigthumbsup
I can believe it, only problem is i got a automatic tran in mine. Should i still get different gear ratios? Also if i could get a chin spoiler painted with pin stripes...that would be awesome, but thanks for the help guys!

alright kool, i take it FRPP for the gears then? (thats really the only ones i can think that would be best or atleast to install them)
I'm with you bigwilly and stl. The only other thing you might want to think about are anti-squat brackets (CHE sells some as do some others I think). Adding them to mine really made a difference in the "rear squat" phenomena on relatively "hard" launches, something I found annoying before I installed the brackets.

Awesome, thanks for the site, one thing though and what about stripes? Do they do it or should i possibly put them on myself or get someone else to do it?
