I'm able to get 2 of 3 mods for cheap but don't know which 2. Here are the 3 mods, 4:10 gears, hurst shifter, or steeda delete plates. Which 2 would be the best bang for the buck. What do you guys think?

best bang for your buck would be IMO a cold air intake and a tuner if you don't have that yet, then gears, once you have the tuner you will be able to correct your speedomoter when you get gears and also have one of the few custom tuners write and email you a tune for your car, gears might be cheap to buy but labor to install is another story, shifter is a cheap and easy mod that you can do yourself.

I do have CAI already, the only reason I said the above 3 mods was because I was going to get them real cheap from a friend but could only get 2, just didn't know which 2.

Gears and delete plates. Forget the Hurst as there are better units.

Yes! They made a difference in my car and $100 is a great price. Like Mustangdave said don't bother with the Hurst save your money for an MGW shifter.
