Slightly more performance

Slightly more performance
I am an everyday driver who does not want to add too many mods. I have narrowed it down to the following to help gain a bit of all-round performance without breaking the bank or going too far from stock (for now, anyway)...
1) ACT Streetlight Flywheel
2) K&N Typhoon Ver 2
3) Tein H-srpings
What do you guys recommend I get first? And if you know anything bad about these products, let me know.
Thanks in advance

Flywheel gets a vote! But remember the labor costs. I paid around $400.00 for mine. The engine revs so much easier.
The K&N you should be able to install yourself. But it is loud at WOT.

You may want to consider the prolite instead of the streelite, I think their website says it's too light for street use, but IIRC a lot of people on this forum have proven otherwise and love it.

your not going to get any performance out of the springs , you wont handle better without shocks and springs. So i would cross that out unless you want the drop for looks then go ahead. my vote would have to go to the flywheel or you could get a nice nitrous setup for about the same price as the flywheel =]

If you get S. techs I gaurnentee your ride wil handle SO much better, from personal experience. BUT your shocks wont last too long, so they will need replacing down the road.

I would go for the intake cause its the cheapest. i have H&r springs on mine just to lower it and the stance cause the handling is about he same. the flywheel is too expensive for the amount of performance you will get out of it.
