my opinion is do the throttle body since that is your current bottle neck, the stock exhaust is plenty even for the srt folks and we do not have a resonator, if anything remove a set of cats to help flow easily cheap mod.


if you want to lower just cut the springs a slight bit and see how that works many have tried with good luck.

look at doing the c32 brake upgrade 4 piston brembo, with drilled and/or slotted rotors with ebc red stuff pads and the stainless good ridge lines.

the brake upgrade will run you around

$250 calipers
$220 for rotors
$120 lines
$120 pads
$250 Throttle body
$35 cut springs


total is $995 and that is a lot of modding for that price,


screw the paint just keep working on it, use some sort of cutting compound and then work it from there. the scratch stuff will do minor stuff but spend $100 in supplies and get a nice DA porter cable and hit that up your self.

paint will not make you go faster or stop quicker, so no fun for you but only fun for by standers. Either way they can not see swirl marks from 5 ft away.
