Just to update,

Getting the driver/passenger doors tinted tomorrow morning and then the Windshield is getting replaced Wednesday morning. Also should have an extra key fob coming in and will run it by the Dealer to get the new fobs programmed. :)

This one had the privacy tint on the back so I had the front doors matched and it was only $65. I didnt do the front windshield since it's getting replaced tomorrow

Ok guys question time. I've been searching and reading on performance mods. Clear some things up for me

From what I understand pretty much anything you do mod wise requires a tune. What can be done without a tune or throwing codes?

I don't want to go crazy with mods but best bang for the buck. I really like the idea of the superchip cortex tuner but I guess I'm stuck stock afterwards or risk it running bad if I mod

Or should I just do trifecta tune and be done with it?

So far this is what I would like to do. Lowering springs, braces and motor mount. Intake and I guess the exhaust delete and would like to do the forged valve for a louder sound. Is there any gotta have in this department?

I guess I'm just trying to figure what what order to do things as the tuning thing just has me confused.

I will say this. Don't try a muffler delete. You will get a highway "drone" sound that is very irritating inside the car.
I tried it. Hated the noise. Stuck on a Flowmaster(recommended by SSfan) and I'm happy with that. Plus, it's a LOT smaller than the stock muffler so it helped reduce a little weight.
