$3 grand to spend on the car in January?
OK guys and gals. I am cashing out some vacation and comp time at the end of the year. The Family gets $3 grand and I get $3 grand to play with.
The question is what to do next. You can read below what mods I have. I'm thinking Big brake kit but more power would be nice.
What would you do????

Update: The wife added another grand. Its now 3K.

Things have changed! Its now $3000.00 to spend
Alright, the wife upped my mini cash so now I have 3K to spend.
Here is my thinking on what to buy.
StopTech or the new TCE 14" (if it fits) BBK, Front and rear (rears are just rotors)
Fireball ECU.
Ireland fixed camber plates
Or
New head and cam. Don't know which brand yet.

Koni FSD

Do You track your mini a lot? (Like every weekend) If not, honestly I wouldn't worry about the BBK. Maybe invest in some green stuff pads. If I were you I would do the Head/Cam deal. You would probably have to install yourself to keep under the 2000 Limit. I can hook you up with the shop that did mine with incredible results. I've seen a shirck cam out there for $420...can't remember which vendor. PM me if your interested! Good luck -- Johan
EDIT: Just read your last post...For sure do the Head/Cam!!!! No doubt you will NOT be dissapointed!
