Based on your poll, it looks as though you may be cost constrained. If so, I would go with the exhaust. I wouldn't do the struts without doing the springs too and that'll be a bit of money combined. Exhaust sounds nice and will open up the breathing some since you have the K&N filter. Some people have very modded cars and elected not to do the intake. By the way, where did you find the Injen for $160? -JoeB

www.adventon.com has them around that price. I vote for the product Danny is about to come out with. Injen CAI. :wink:

by the options on your poll, the exhaust will provide the most impressive, as well as most noticible, upgrade you can do.

i think he's only planning to get struts w/o springs. that wouldn't really be much of an upgrade AND he'd just have to pay labor costs again when he does get springs.

It sounds like you've already decided to go the exhaust route. However, I cast my vote for the struts. I agree with a couple of the other posts that springs and struts are the best first mod. In my opinion, they'll give you a lot more bang for the buck than an exhaust mod.

You didn't mention whether you have a V6 or an I4. If you have a 4 banger, an exhaust will give you very little benefit, unless you're just looking for sound. Even if you have a V6, unless you are supercharged, the benefits are still not that significant.

What Should I get?? Ballpark price figures
