Default Astoria huh? Crazy, another PDX'er in da house. ;-) My advice...

Tint, Paint Lowers, Alcon's (I'm biased... ;-) or StopTech's (get the BB <i>before</i> the new wheels if you can), Wheels, Exhaust.

Do yourself a favor, don't buy the V1, and just slow down on those roads. I've decided against the V1 just because it's not really a good thing to have since it gives you a false sense of security. Besides, unless you couple the V1 w/ a jammer (illegal in our fair state) then there's really no point. Save the money for the Supercharger kit in a few years. ;-)

Default Tint / StopTech's / iPod hardwire (love mine) / Paint Lowers

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/53971/claire_ipod_03.jpg"></center><p>I woudln't bother with the perf. mods. When I took my car to the track, I don't think 15 more HP would have made nearly as much difference as a BBK.

Oh and for a Daily Driver an iPod (or similar) is something you will appreciate every day.

PS: Clearing the corners is simple and looks good too...

Default Chip it!........not just the 15hp gain, Torque gain of 20 ft lbs

add a quality exhaust and you will pick up some more. K &amp; N drop in filter, and don't get sucked in to all the BS about the MAF oiling up, etc.
Forget the brake upgrade, yours are already bigger than the 1.8T's and very effective.
Quality Body kit, get rid of the black plastic crap.
Then rims, as the stock sport rims go fine with a Body kit, when you have the extra cash. Here is my daily driver.

Default i thought the snub on the 3.0 required taking off the bumper, etc. it's not the easy job that it is

on the 1.8, i believe
