Somewhere to start?

[Sulvestr]

I just recently bought a 2002 GTP and I love it! Now it's time to upgrade. I was just wondering where I should start.

Headers depending your goal with it . No matter what headers are needed IMO

Sound system, paper cone stock sounds like death. Just the 6*9's should only cost about 70 bucks for some nice kickers ds69. I have more bass than my friend with subs. And it doesent rattle the **** out of every piece of metal in the car (like subs do). Also a head unit looks nice and u can add bass boost which the speakers can handle.

Change the lower intake manifold gaskets with the improved version if they have not already been replaced.

It would probably be helpful to know if you're a mechanic, never touched a wrench, etc.

And goals for the car. Do you want it to be pretty? Sound good? Handle well? Go fast? Be reliable?

Is there a budget?

Thank you guys. Personally I have never worked on a car myself, but I have many friends that work at auto shops or dealers as mechanics and they do everything themselves, so I am wanting to learn. And as for budget, its just going to be one thing at a time, as money allows

Cheapest and easiest upgrade would be to remove the air box and make your own "hot air" intake.
