1) Intake - what is recommended that will not break the bank? I saw a post where someone said that there was an blackwing intake at $100.00 or $150.00 for members?
2) Springs - Same here, I was looking at either Eibachs or Hotchkis 1" drop?
3) Exhaust - I was looking into the Doug Thorely cat-back system, only around $500.00 any thoughts?
4) cat-back or axle back? Is there much of a difference as far as horsepower or are they pretty much the same?
5) will the car need any type of tuning with these mods or will everything be OK? Don't want a check engine light coming on.
Thanks for the help.

Clarkshome – Welcome to the forum! If you’re looking for great performance and lowering your car, you’re on the right track with some Hotchkis
Sport Springs. They are progressive springs, which allows for a good performance feel during regular operation without being too harsh. When you’re driving more aggressively, the spring rate increases as the springs are compressed more…so you’ll get more performance when you need it.
