So tell me people what should I get first? I know the dealership does mod's for customers. This one sales guy was telling me that they can do my exhaust and intake for me. Give me an extra 17 hp. I still have to talk to him about it.

what you gotta do is get the srt intake or area 51, hks dragger or hiper(i think the dragger doesnt scrape as bad), and get in on that toyomoto header pre-sale. im assuming the was off the line. also you have to launch! if you gotta automatic just step hard on the brake with your left foot and slam the gas right foot and let go left foot at around 2.5rpm. i hate hearing stories of IS's getting beat by lower grade cars!(although a celica is part of the toyota/lexus family) it is a common perception that that IS is slow and im tired of hearing it! i have never lost a race yet(one due to traffic) i always smoke the cars that want a challenge. i have yet to race a wrx or a cl-s already beat 330i. think i'll lose? no! my car is special! well hope you have the money for these mods...i just threw it on the credit card and pay it off later. im all go and no show. i probably wont even lower my car. ok man do what chu gotta do brotha!
