Fiji Blue Si mods

My new car should get here in the next few days, and this being my first new car I want to make sure i make it mine.

Adding:
AVIC-Z1 nav
Tint
2x Kappa Perfect woofers (12s) (enough room in the trunk to be comfortable/put other stuff?)

Im not sure what else...id like to put some preformance additions on there, but I dont know much about it. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Maybe i need to look at springs/exhausts?

I like your mods, but I hope you have the money, and just wait a few miles till you install your mods if you end up getting them. Id wait till you get to atleast 600miles to get use to your car, cause once you add those mods, theres gonna be a big difference, and your gonna feel it.

With my mods, it took a few days for me to actually get use to redlining again..2days:gaygiggle

Yea ill definitly wait a little while before doing any of this stuff (ill probably tint and add the woofers asap). Total would be around 1300...that would include...(i did some more research)...

Tint
2x Alpine SWE-1242 (12s)...maybe only need one
aem cold air intake
comptech short-shifter
eibach pro kit springs
greddy evo2

The last four are probably in order of preference. Im not sure how much i need the evo2 or springs, but the shifter would be nice to have and the aem cai...plus the evo is pretty steep. how much improvement is it over the stock? and do the springs really add that much (they are pretty expensive) in terms of preformance? i do also think the si is a little high though.

Go for Injen CAI if your planning on getting a CAI, its gonna be coming out soon, and should be a better CAI in my opinion. Dont lower it to much though, I mean if your scared to hydrolock that is...Since your gonna have a CAI.

Thanks for the suggestions SD. Another question...Will there be/are there any kits avaliable to put in graphite grey lettering/honda symbol (like in the lexus)? couldnt find anything on that but i think it would look pretty good with tint/fiji/grey wheels.
