Default RC350 Project (Springs, Exhaust and Intake)

I plan on installing the following parts to my RC350 (unfortunately, in my country they don't sell the F-Sport variant).

1. Swift Springs Spec R (improve ride comfort & aesthetics)
2. F-Sport Intake (increased performance)
3. F-Sport Exhaust (increase performance)

I would like to know if any of these mods will actually provide noticeable improvements.

I am more concerned with improving ride comfort and hopefully reduce my 0-60 time.

Any other suggestions are welcome.

Thank you.

Option 1 is not going to help with comfort but it will help in aesthetics. Option 2 and 3 is not going to make a difference in performance. You could go with an ARK exhaust which makes a performance difference as it's lighter and less restrictive, but you still won't feel a difference.

The springs will lower your car a little, but improve performance, not comfort. But its not a big downgrade in comfort or anything, I do advise getting them.

I would rather recommend the Ark Performance exhaust over the Fsport, also the Takeda intake instead of the Fsport.

I have all items in stock!
