For example, with my ugly blood-turd Betty I went with car stereo first, then recently added turbo-back exhaust, turbo swap and tune. Then I added a front lip and rear/side skirts. Next stages will be (hopefully) done in the following order:

* fuel pump, cold air induction, silicone intake, headers, larger tmic (next week )
* sway bars, anti-lift kit, alignment.
* upgraded brakes (huge maybe)
* rims and other cosmetic shit

Personally, not a fan of the body kit front or back. Prefer the standard STI look than what you have going on. But if you like it then who cares what we think because you are the one that has to look at it not us!

If you're getting intake and upgrading the intercooler, are you going to get a tune? Does it have a tune currently?
sound system includes comp series pioneer TS-D1720C 6.5" splits for the front and identical TS-D1602R 6" speakers for rear and ALPINE MRP-1000 mono block running two pioneer champion series subs TS-W309D4 with ALPINE MRP-f600 4 channel amp running the speakers and all of this is powered by the PIONEER DEH-9350SD connected with the kicker competition wiring systems not sure on codes but their like $175 each per kit : D

bov is fitted sounds mean as and turbo timer all though i know is not required is mainly for cool factor lol.....

my coolant overflow was dodged up by repairs at dealer ship so they are replacing it with the moroso one.

haven't had it tuned yet but will be getting the verso tune soon. maybe?

i would love to put some rays on that sit outside the guards but cost isn't worth it so will probably look at some rotas or vastoenns or maybe even ultrex rims that sit flush any recommendations on rims would be good also will be going 19" don't like 18" at all way too small looks wrong in those big guards : D

thanks for feed back guys keep it coming any mod suggestions would be great

also getting all my lihts in white and purple : D from interior flare includes doors cluster hvac e.t.c. and possibly cobb short shifter???

Be aware that you are probably running rich having the bov fitted.

Each to their own, not my cup of tea but would still like to see the finished result. I still can't work out why people buy a WRX then spend another 10k on it with sti bits and pieces when you could just buy a sti for the same price in the end.

However good luck with your build look forward to seeing the end result.
