Before I start I to apologize for posting one of these threads. It seems everywhere I turn someone is asking about what to do with an extra few hundred bucks. Well much to my dismay I am going to be one of them and ask you what should I buy for my ep02 with the extra 2-3 hundred I will set. It will be my first mod and I don't really want anything major like engine mods or anything that I will need a mechanic because i don't have a lift nor am i mechanically savy. I was thinking tint, then I was thinking air intake. I don't know, I'm sure you guys have ideas please let me know or just post what you are going to do with your money.

intake and my old exhaust system :) i have a midpipe with stock res. and a custom axle back exhaust. the absolute best sounding exhaust ever, have many people who have heard it. i like the way it sounds better than my magnaflow. the only possibly bad thing about it, is the muffler is kinda ricey, two angled tips, b4 everyone flames me, my dealer put it on, said it was a "performance" exhaust. if you like the look, good exhaust. i went a 15.2 with that exhaust and my injen cold air intake.

this is from the classified ad i posted a while back.

i just got my magnaflow so i have a custom exhaust for sale. here's what it is. from the cat to the stock resonator it is 2.25 piping, then from the resonator to the muffler it is also 2.25 piping. the muffler is just a universal one that has two tips that angle up. it sounds real good, many people have heard it, and liked the way it sounded(gabesilversi, esmith, ephatchgirl, blacknredsi, etc...) it sounds almost like a hks, and has absolutley no ricey sound at any RPM range, very deep sounding. personally i love the way it sounds, but as i said my g/f ordered me magnaflow for x-mas. i will post pics later(it's still on the car until tomorow). make me an offer. i'm in NJ. oh yeah and the midpipe is welded to the resonator, and the muffler is bolted to the resonator.

I will be getting some new rubber with my return. I was looking at the Yokohamo EVS..I think thats the model. Anyway, I'm looking for 205/55/15. Does anyone know if thats too wide, or not wide enough. Can I go 210 and a 45 side. i think it might be too extreme. The wheels are stock.
