I got new springs so I can drop my car because it was sitting there like a 4X4...it gave me a lil more than an inch and should settle down to an inch an a half in about a week...

I got Maxspeed springs for $120 and installation for $130...Are they bad? I checked on ebay and it was $110 shipped so its not that bad deal...
What you guys think?

Also what should be my next mod
-Short shifter? (steeda or another brand?)
-BBK Throttle body? (or another brand?)
-2 flowmaster 40 series? (or magnaflows?)
-Catback? (which one?)
-Headers? (which one is better, long headers or short ones?)

Thanks,

I'd say next mod depending on what's more important to you. Catback if you want it to sound good. I like my flowmasters, but they are kind of common, and I'd probably go with Bassani if the flows weren't already on the car when I bought it.
Shifter will make the car more fun to drive. Go with MGW if you decide on the shifter - I love mine.

A catback or short throw shifter would be good second mods depending on your budget.

nitrous.

dont waste your money on crappy, small bolt-ons.

Gears, full exhaust (i.e. long tube headers, o/r midpipe and catback of your choice), shifer, cams, nitrous or FI (i.e. turbo or supercharger) and suspension mods such as sub frame connectors, UCAs/LCAs, panhard bars etc...
