unless u want to void ur warranty (unless u paid it off) I wouldnt do anything to it yet.

check the warranty to see what youre able to do first off. and then if you can CAI, exhaust, thermostat, and chip are the best and easiest to do. thermostat is the cheapest way to increase performance.

visuals- def gotta get the windows tinted. next week im getting a single pinstripe offcentered the whole length of the car with the word lancer painted into the stripe on the hood it looks pretty BA on other cars ive seen, or mayb some mitsubishi decals performance- racing chips are pretty expensive id recomend getting exhaust- boost hp and makes it sound mean

What effects does the thermostat have on your car I was just curious? I would definitely buy intake and exhaust next before going on to some chip from most of my friends who have them they just cause idling issues and fuel management problems
