Default Time to spend some money!!

Right guys!

I`ve got £2000 to spend on my 53 plate wrx, its already got uprated discs and pads + braided hoses + 5.1 dot brake fluid.(fitted a few weeks ago)

Gonna book it in to scoobyclinic for next week.

On what and where is the money best spent
My ideas so far...

Arb with solid droplinks
Stiffer springs
New exhaust... sports cat or decat?
Induction kit
Remap

Will i have enough money for anything else

I`d like to think these funds would achieve around 280bhp and a nice handling car for `B` road driving.

Let me know your thoughts

Cheers
Mike

try stage 2 upgrade I would say thats the next best step for you towards your goal of 280bhp

I'm jealous got 50k service, insurance, MOT and tyres to get for mine soon. All I want to do is spend the money on mods . Go for their package deal 2, £2150ish which gives approx 300bhp/300lbs of torque. Thats what I'd do .

A very envious, Wolfie
