Default need some suggestions from you guys...

Well I am a new owner of an 06 GPW s2k and I love the car. I am debating whether or not I want to strat modding the car. If I do decide to start doing thigns to the car I wanted to know what some of the good products are out there. I am looking for maybe the following things:

Intake (Comptech and AEM are what I have been considering)
Exhaust (Amuse of course but it is so expensive. any other alternatives)
Headers (TODA maybe)
Coilovers (not to sure on this one, i might not even lower the car)

Let me know what you guys think. Also if you guys can think of any other parts that are a good investment let me know.

No parts are a good investment. Are you hoping to improve performance?

AEM intake will make it louder if that's what you're after.

You could come to the auto-x Sunday and see what parts of the car are holding you back and need to be replaced.

Comptech . For intake
If you want LOUD (JIC magic Titanium Exhaust), or Descent (T1R dual Sparrow or T1R 70mm Single)
Coilovers (Performance wise JIC ALT2 Coilovers), or You can go with the (BuddyClub or Megan Racing like everyone, but I don't recommend that)
Headers (Toda good choice, but you can spend just enough for an Mugen)
