Default Opinions on my idea...

hey guys, i just wanted to know if anyone could give input on my idea for the car. ok, so what i'm thinking is getting a 160 thermostat, headers, ory, catback, AIR;EGR deletes, and sending my factory computer to pcmforless for a tune. all of my mods are in my signature except for the air foil i put in today. i've been trying to lay a good foundation for future, bigger modifications by trying to let the car breathe. which is why i've done so much to the induction part of the car (CAI, TB bypass, air foil). i'd really like another tune after i get the rest of this stuff so i thought of PCM4less. i'd like to try an OBD2 tune this time. Does this sound like a good plan? or are there better ways to spend my money? thanks in advance.

air foil = pretty much worthless

do full exhaust, CAI, stall converter, tune, if ya want a little extra hp get some 1.6 rockers (easy bolt on)

If you want power do LTs/catback and a good converter. That'll put a smile on your face, then it'll make you want more haha

I agree
putting a converter in will make a huge difference.
