What do you think i shoudl get next:

1. A Mach 1 Chin
2. A Throttle body (70mm or 75mm?) followed by a plenum some time later.
3. Save up some more for an X pipe?
4. CAI? (probably not)
 
What are some good brands for t/b and plenums? Being the impatient person that i am, i will probably by a t/b then a plenum or the other way round, which one is the better way to go about it?

X pipe will have to be a catted X if i do get it.

Should i go:
C&L
Dragon
Accufab
Other?
 
I believe the dyno on the tests done ad MD showed no real gain between the 70 and 75. There's no real difference in price, so I would base it on what you plan to realistically do with the car in the future. Sure everyone wants to get a blower or some other power adder, but is it realistically possible that you will get one? Pick according to what you plan.
 
yes get the 70mm accufab.and to answer your question about noticable gains.Sorry to say but NO.I just did the instal 2 days ago both TB+plenum and didnt really feel any gains , but it could be just me.
IMO get the X pipe now or Gears :D
 
I'd say get the chin spoiler cause it looks cool. Love mine.
Get the x-pipe cause it helps a little in the hp dept and sounds good.
Get an Accufab tb/plenum combo cause it's quality, just don't expect to really feel any big gains. I didn't.
I think your drop in K&N is good enough. CAI's don't do much except for bling or to add it to your sig :)
I don't see gears in your options. Those you definately feel a difference, not faster per se but a definate difference in SOTP.
 
I am somewhat apprehensive about an X pipe, a catted X costs a lot more and i would need it or my car would be TOO loud.

I don't really want to get gears because i drive basically only on the highway and I don't know any shops near me that I would trust with something like that.
 
i'd get #1 and 3.. mach 1 chin is a really nice addition to the car, subtle yet noticeable.

The X-pipe will help out w/some hp and help the sound even more, altho ur runnin straight pipes lol

If you go with the tb/plenum, i'd go with Accufab. I've got the 75mm setup on my car, it's nice.

Gears would be nice, i've got 3.73's and they're perfectly fine for highway driving. 4.10's are good, but if you're gonna be highway driving a lot, then i wouldnt go with that much of a gear
