In general, what do most think should come first when doing some basic work to a stock VS berlina/Calais/executive as a first ride?
Just to get it nice and playfull......:dance:
Before you do *anything* work out what you want to achieve. A nice street cruiser? Circuit racer? Dragster?
Then with these goals in mind, select your wheel/tyre combo and brakes (if you are going to change them), then set your ride height and get shockabsorbers to suit (at the same time).
Now you have the ability to put the power to the ground look at your powertrian. If you are changing your camshaft &/or other inernal mods, start here. When the motor goes back in, do the extractors/exhaust at the same time. Once this is all done, give your engine specs and the car to somebody who knows ecu's and can plonk it on the dyno to get the most out of your engine. IMHO the ecu gets done last becuase most engine mods will have at least some effect on ecu performance.
