Default Help with decision please!

Didnt really know what section to put this in but I am torn between two mods. They are as follows:

1. Koni SA shocks and Hotchkis lowering springs and Adj. Panhard rod. Approximately $1100

OR

2. Nearly new Hooker coated headers and ORY for $300 and hooker catback for $340. Approximately $700 all said and done.

I have the money for the exhaust but it will take a little more saving for suspension. Which one will I be pleased with more? From your individual experiences, what would you choose?

Thats all up to you brotha...If your like me and want power, do the exhaust stuff...If you looking for stance and handling right away, get the suspension stuff.. Personal preference...Or you could get some of both, possibly do a lil package so to speak!! Good Luck

And this can move to suspension.........if it starts to lean that way eventually. Hard choice, but I would say exhaust first.
