I have about 200 to spend and I want to put it towards my car. I am thinking either a 70mm MAC TB & EGR spacer for $180.00

Or MAC unequal length shorty headers for $160.00

Let me know what you guys think~!

I ALREADY HAVE GEARS, JUST NOT INSTALLED!

To me that would depend on what gears are under it now, and if a change will do any good. You need to know what gears you have and put some passes under your belt at the local track, I found that my 3:27 gears are perfect for the current power level. If I lower the ratio to say 3:73, that will add a shift and make 1st practically useless IMHO.

I wouldnt spend cash on a TB or headers. On a stock motor, I dont think you will gain enough to notice, if anything at all. Your $ would be better spent at the track learning to drive it at the current power level if you dont have much experience. I have found this to be kind of a waste too, on street tires. They dont stick nearly as well as they do on the street and the car is unpredictable. Someone here said it best when they said " a cars best mods are traction and a great driver".
