Help me pick... JIC Coilovers, Supercharger, Trunk Setup

Sup Guys,
Help me pick what I should do next to my car. Basically this car is going to be a show car. I stated that because I know that most of you guys would say SC off the bat. If i did go with the SC I would run stock boots and not really upgrade anything. Also the SC wouldn't stand out as much as coilovers and a trunk setup.

your car will last longer without the supercharger. If you're like me, and you want to run the car into the ground... then you're going to want to run that car for as long as possible.

I plan to keep the car for a while. Also I don't speed or race my car. I just like the sound of the SC.

well your car looks already pretty low and i love car audio so i would go with the full trunk setup. although the sound of the SC is nice, I think in the long run the audio will sound nicer.

if your into the show scene you should know what judges look for, which is something in every area. If you have intake exhaust, a pretty looking engine bay then add some nitrous for show and call it a day in the performance catagory. Go with the ICE setup or coilovers for show, that is if your looking to compete, if your just going for fun and maybe to win a few here and there I'd go with the charger for your own enjoyment.

The rear of my car sits way lower than the front of my car. Could it be that my springs are getting old?

keid....

get the damn SC already. LOL

nah, i'd say do the trunk setup. i'm gonna do a custom trunk too but later on. (i'm still waiting for the new Alpine line of amps to come out)

Id say get that supercharger out of the way.

SC is possible but its gonna be a pain to find a MT EGR

i'd say slam that car... nothing looks better than the front dumped down and the rear at the height you want it to be.

the supercharger isnt that great
do something else

Coilovers!

ok, honest.... a SC will net you about 30 ponies...

A trunk system will thump into the night....

But a slammed suspension, will improve handling, and give you a distinctive look.

My opinion...

BTW, Im doing Tein coilovers on mine hopefully by the end of the month.... mwahahahahahaha

Eh wussup keid . . . i'd say for the VIP status at the show, DEFINITELY go with the JIC FLT-A2 coilovers. make that sucka slammed! yea a custom trunk setup would be G, but i personally would like to see your ride sittin low. on the note of the supercharger . . . eh, get it if you are looking forward to modding the 1MZ-FE more. shootz den brah & good luck.

I like the JIC just because it will improve the look and handling....

What should I do next to my "Show" car?
