Default What mods to do?

Hey guys.. ive had my neon for about a year now.. its a 2001 chrysler neon.. bone stock never had any mods done (just a stereo with amp/sub)..

I would like to get a bit more power outta it and also make her sound a little better.. thinking of simple mods that a guy like me (little car knowledge) can do to help me out a bit.. Also cheap mods are a real plus cuz im at school and just wanna make her sound and run better..

Im thinking right now about a CAI and thorwing a HID conversion in.. what do u guys think?

Is a CAI from ebay alright? http://cgi.ebay.ca/00-04-DODGE-NEON-...QQcmdZViewItem
And what type of HID kit should i look for? will they look alright with the stock heads or should i buy some aftermarket heads as well??

Thanks and if u guys know of many other cheap and effective mods please let me know.. also i need simple ones..

Thanks


ALSO: if someone could link me to a how to CAI for an 00+ neon that would be grealy opreaciated!!

Thanks

I would go with the ebay intake and a nice set of hyper white or icey blue headlight bulbs are nicer than hids. I also would go with some msd wires and ngk plugs and a nice dual exhaust to start out with.

try modern for a magnaflow dual or srt forums or ebay for a srt4 dual and for good msd wires its 50 bucks from modern and for some good plugs anywhere from 15 to 30 bucks try your local autoparts store.
