Default opinions on what to do next???

well i think i have about covered all the bolt on's to my car and am about to start getting into the bigger money stuff!!! so what do you guys suggest next, here is a back ground on the car....

daily driver
1996 A4
CAI
descreened MAF
intake elbow
52mm TB
airfoil
160 thermo
TB bypass mod
MSD coil
MSD wires
NGK plugs
UD pulleys
3" catback exhaust
gutted cats
manual cutout
some computer tweaking
b&m shift plus

has stock headers on it, that is what im thinking most of you guys will say to replace next!!! stock heads and cam and intake stock rear end with 3.23 gears

so whats up, i was thinking a nice wet kit since its a daily, no major modifications to put that on!!! lets hear it, and thanks in advance!!!

Suspension, suspension, suspension.

LCA's
LCA Relos
Adj Tq Arm
Panhard Bar
Rear sway bar
SFCs

UMI can hook you up for relatively cheap. They dont make a rear sway bar though, but I personally went for the 25mm solid Spohn piece. A bit stiff for a DD but still tolerable.

After that your car will be a whole different beast from a dig and slow roll, launching harder and straighter then before.

Longtube headers, suspension work stated above, and then a full computer tune.

I dont know how much money you have but I would do a set of pacesetter longtubes, 3.73 gears since you have an auto, and a new tune from pcm4less or madz28. those would be the first 3 things i would do if i were you...and if you had money left over i would then go with a new torque convertor
