RS4 3 18SS HOP UP ??'s

Yes get the Rd Logics pipe and get the Graphite upper deck, tell me what you want your car to be like, a handlers or speed demon and your price range, here are a few things you could do, it's my SS(old pics new engine now)

i got many hop-ups(as u can see) the car is barely stock. i use a CVEC pipe and it works great plus it adds alittle horespower
i did clean it now, these pictures were taken awhile ago.

RE: RS4 3 18SS HOP UP ??'s
the first thing i'd like to work on is chassis rigidity (i.e., stiff chassis for great handling). im thinking i'll look into graphite/carbon fiber upper decks, towers, and different spring rates. are there any other types of parts that'll make the chassis stiffer?
with power, i'm gonna take it one thing at a time, with just a pipe for now

I have the HPI deck but i had flipped the rx plate upside down to get that pack to fit, i have a flat pack now so it doesn't matter, those thing on my front suspension are braces and get rid of the slop
