most popular mods

So can anybody tell me what is the most popular mods or performance part that most or yourself put on your FD?

- Steering wheel
- Down pipe
- Exhaust
- FMIC

ETC...

Just wanting to know because my friend has a shop and is going to start carrying parts for both FD & FC.

You help would be helpful.

Thanks

Mike

yea you should start off with candy flamez on da side wif dat phat spearco front mount intake.


on a serious note, most popular mods would be downpipe, alum rad, alum AST from pettit, once you get the reliability mods done then you can start getting into stuff like a Power FC, running a full exhaust with either a highflow cat or a midpipe, injectors, fuel pump, intercooler, and TUNING.

carrying large items such as exhaust parts in stock is silly. they are vehicle specific.

boost controllers, pretty gauges, that stuff is the way to go.
