Well, I have $500 to spend.
What should I get.

I'm thinking, iPhone, wheels, or exhaust?

Exhaust?
What can I get for $500.
I would like to add some sound to my stock ride.

since I just added a bassani ss x w cats thats my suggestion.
I do have magnaflow mufflers behind the x. Looks like you already have
bullit wheels which look good as is.

Forget the iphone, they still are having problems left and right with them.

As for Exhaust I have a MAC Cat back and Bassanni X, both I like, but you can't get both of them for $500. However, you could get a Cat'ed X and some Weld in mufflers to make it sound better.

That's exactly what I was going to say. No way I would pay that much for a phone. Get an exhaust.

I-Phone is cool and all, but believe me there are far better things you could purchase then an I-Phone at that price.

The iPhone is $400, but with everything I'm sure $500.
I'm only thinking about it because I could use it for work, and it's a tax write off.

I was leaning towards the exhaust though.
I really don't know enough when it comes to exhaust.
I know I would need more to really do it complete.
But what's the best bang for the buck?
I'm looking to make it sound better, everything is stock right now.

Flowmaster cat back and a MAC H-pipe would only run $400. I have the Flows American Thunder with BBK H-pipe and the car sounds killer Nice deep growl and really screams when you step on it but its still fairly civalized and in the car its quiet with the windows up and no drone.

you can get a bbk o/r x pipe and some weld in mufflers and some tips and it would sound really nice and you wont spend as much for a catback.

i know that on my phones that after about a year...maybe a bit less the battery stops holding a charge like it used to.....so i go and buy a new battery.

but on the i-phone, its a sealed unit. so what you gonna do when the battery stops holding a charge? maybe out here in the chicago area you go to an apple store, we have 2 one downtown chi-town and one in woodfield mall. but where else you gonna get that done?
