which path should i choose?
(2009 is250 awd)
Being a university student, I'm on a bit of a budget so I'm trying to decide between form and/ or function
*path 1: lowering springs, ppe headers, hi flow cats
path 2: bc coilovers, spc camber kit front and figs mega arms rear
*If you say path 1, what springs give me an even drop, and a stiffer ride than stock on an awd is250? also, what options are available for struts seeing as the stock shock apparently wears out faster with aftermarket springs?
Thanks guys

University students. Man I see them going slammed on the daily lol.
*Path 1
- Roadmagnet Springs is 2inch all around.
- Aftermarket shocks can get F-Sport(Bilstein) /Koni /Tokico
But since your gonna be paying for both its = to a new Coilovers. I say try to find a used BC coil in the classified section?

I'm basically ready for coils, but headers would also be sweet lol.

If I were you, I would save the money for a sports car. You can spend 12k on trying to make the car handle better like a sports car, but it would still fall very short.

I would go path 2a if you really want to spend a bit of money. Just get a set of BC coilovers with a mild drop. You don't want to slam an awd unless you want to pay a lot to keep it that way. With a mild drop there is no need for any add ons for camber. You will be fine. If you spend a lot of money for headers and cats you will maybe gain 10hp and have a slightly less slow 250 but it still won't be quick!

As it is, I'm thinking about skipping out on rear toe links and bushings up front, as I was advised that toe shouldnt be too compromised with a 2.5" drop, even after alignment with new camber parts.

This. Student loans seem like free money when you're IN college. Here I am, 10 years out and I'm finally almost done with mine... And my wife has more than half in student loans as our mortgage...
