What do you think?..
Sup everybody. I have a little dillema that my gf is tired of listening to me debate over
  ive got around $750 to spend and im not sure what to get. Right now im leaning towards 2 things 1 Ground Control Coilovers and tokico illuminas for a 1.5/2in drop= 280+ 430= $710 2 An exhaust(either Greddy EVO or the SKunk2) + Ngk spark plugs +nology hypergrounds +k&N air filter. 500+9+127+10 646 Ive got a daily driver and plan on doing an engine swap (B18c1) and taking the turbo route as soon as i get out of colledge. o yea and of course if anyones got any suggestions besides those 2 id really like to hear.

first off, most Nology products are rip offs. paying $127 for a few wires with terminals on it is plain RETARDED. go to any supply shop and buy a length of say, 8 gauge wire and some radio shack terminals and make your own grounds. Everybody is too dependant on name brands...
 I would upgrade the suspension if i were you.

If your planning on doing an engine swap, why bother wasting money on your current engine.

id upgrade your suspension first. then get exhaust but dont spend $$ on greddy. your paying for the name, theres plenty of other quality exhausts out there for a lot cheaper.

91civicDXdude Do you have any experience on making your own grounds? Do you know of a how-to and installation instructions online?
jackasssi If your planning on doing an engine swap, why bother wasting money on your current engine. My distributor cap and rotor and ingition wires and sparks need to be replaced. Thats the reason for the nology wires and NGK plugs. mattyoung33 Just wondering whats the exhaust that gives you the most noticeable power gain for the least amount of cash? Theres a deal on the Skunk2 right now on groubuy for 487. And it seemed to do make its way into the Top ten power pages of import tuner on january. I mean has anyone heard anything bad about the Skunk2? All in all i am going for the suspension. Thanks everybody i think now ive got things planned a little bit better than before.
