Help What Mod Next?
Ok I've got a bit of spare cash but am not really sure what to go for next?
Oh and the car is a MY02 WRX-
The options are -
Change the springs for Prodrive / Eibach
Do the next section/s of the exhaust (Back Box has already been changed)
Save some more and get a shiny set of 18's or 19's
Ecutek Remap
Sti Rear Spoiler
Oh and my budget at the mo is between £500-600
What do you think?

What car have you got mate?
If it's a pre 99MY Scooby, the first thing you should do is upgrade the brakes to four pots!
If you've got a 99MY or above, get some guages installed first to keep an eye on what's going on with the car before modding too extensively. A knocklink, Boost guage and a Oil temp guage should be sufficient for the next stage: A decat down pipe, which frees up the most restrictive part of the exhaust and helps with turbo spool up and then a ECUTEK remap to take advantage of the improved breathing. If you didn't mind a bit more hassle at MOT time you could also go for a decat centre section before the remap, or if you get a bit more dough and don't want the hassle at MOT time, a high flow sports cat centre section.
Have fun!!
