Best upgrade on a budget?

[xeclipse631x]

So I've been debating for a few weeks and I'm not too certain. I have about $250 to spend, and I don't know what to use it on. In your opinion, whats the best engine/exhaust upgrade for around $250? :iono:

I know its not much - our cars are expensive to work on. But even something small. Let me know what you think.

Save some more cash and get a Stage 1 flash -- that's the most bang for the buck.

Save for the Stage 1. Or, better yet, charge it now and pay for it later. $250 mods won't make much of a difference until you go Stage 1, while Stage 1 will make your car feel like a whole different animal.

Why drive your car in its current suck-ass state for the next 6 months when you can have it at Stage 1, and thoroughly enjoy those miles? That's my philosophy anyway, but I have irresponsible spending habits.

Keep you money and take out your passenger and rear seats! Also take out your spare tire! That will shed a few hundred pounds making your car feel faster, but you win cause you didnt spend a dime!!

the best I can suggest is VAG-COM a micro-can, and that should do for that $250, it is well worth it!! you can diagnose the car with your laptop and do other mods to it just by VAG-COMing the features of the car.
