What about the car do you want to change? Appearance, handling, stance? The springs are a good option, as is a rear sway bar. How do you use the car (daily driver, autocross, track days)?
After 30 seconds of thought, I would put an oil catch can on it. Maybe you will have enough left over for a cool hat, so you look good in your roadster............
Have fun,
Mike

Bigger rear swaybar... HANDS DOWN! You will barely get any noticeable power gains for that amount of money. No matter how many people say they spend in the 5000+ rpm section of the powerband, the daily driver really does not venture into this territory. The cash you spend on a thicker rear swaybar is something you will feel with every corner you take regardless of speed!
Start with a rear sway bar, that is the best bang for your buck.

Torque arm bushing is great too.

Slightly off the topic, would the coupe/roadster be better suited to a 19mm bar, due to their shorter wheelbase? I don't know if the weight distribution is different or not. I had a 19mm on my MCS, and now have a hollow 25mm that I like better. I don't know if the same trends would apply for the 2 seater versions, or if they respond differently.
Thanks,

good call. I think I'm gonna fork over some extra cash and get the springs, sway bar and torque steer...
I'd love to get the downpipe but In Cali its illegal.. maybe I can get away with a catted DP but thats for later..
