Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Outcome without a verified action link
Fixed it and the approx price paid for the parts from what I remember.
It appears that there are many new owners joining the fold recently and asking for mod advice. I figured that people who have modded their car can share their mods and the value feedback on those mods vs money paid. It will be 1 to 5. 5 being the highest value. I will start:
Performance Mods:
EVO CAI - 3 (EVO cold air intake) $500
SSK - 5 (B&M short shift) $200
PSS9 - 4 (Bilstein adj coilovers) $1800
GT3 sways and adj drop links - 4 $500 + $300
Farnbacher custom flash - 5 only if you have headers, intake and exhaust to make it worth while.
Fabspeed headers & Exhaust - 5
Cosmetic Mod:
Spacers -3
Tequipment Exhaust tips - 4
More to add if I remember them..
If you are targeting newbies (like me) for this post, you'll have to include a decoder ring for the alphabet soup you just posted.
What is all this stuff?
Ill continue:
Bang for the Buck w/ Links
Performance Mods:
Fabspeed Stg 1 Kit
: 4 (includes Headers/exhuast/Intake/Chipped ECU,not cheap)
H&R Springs
: 4 (Not a huge handling benifit but lowers CG and looks much better,very cheap upgrade)
Cosmetic:
GT3 Exhuast tips
: 3 (looks much better than stock but not super-cheap)
Victor Wheels
w/
Hankooks
: 4 (good price on tires and wheels, allowed me to remove spacers too)
My turn............
Fabspeed Mufflers
: 4 (Bought used for $700. Great sound)
Cold Air Return Hose and cap
: 3 (Cheap knock off for $115; gives a throaty sound to the motor when under heavy acceleration)
X74 Suspension
: 5 ($2000 installed; Porsche Euro Suspension, lowers car 1 1/2" and is complete bolt on with no adjustment)
B&M Short Shift Kit
: 4 ($200: A good DYI (actually all things mentioned here are DYI) that decreases the amount of travel the shifter needs to make to engage into another gear.)
Brake Pads
: 5 ($400-600; currently have Hawks HP's but will be changing soon; one of the most important safety upgrades you can do. Most of us are worried about only the tires but the brake pads go hand in hand. Must include a good set of tires)
Stripped and Powder Coated Wheels

New Shift ****
: 3 ($125 easy change)
Tequipment Exhaust Tips
