If you guys had to choose which one should it be?

1) cpe intake and CF hood($1000)..

2) coils($1400)..

3) ATC clutch and fidanza flywheel($1600with installation)

One of these selection may be my next mod in mid july.. Any feed back? Opinions? Help me choose please?

Lol its going either way.. Wanna be lower but where I live has a lot of bumps,speed bumps, dips but would make my car looks nice.. Cpe is to fix air/fuel ratio and also to gain hp.. Clutch and flywheel I may need cuz I don't know how the previous owner drove the car and accidental grindings and mis shifting..

just for looks, id go with springs/struts...won't have the adjustability of coilovers....but 1400 is quite a bit to not use them. If i were gonna auto x, then yeah, coilevers.

clutch/flywheel isnt going to make you much faster in my opinion.

i cant see the cf hood being worth seeing as how expensive it is. i agree with everyone above, save your money for gabe's s/c setup
