As I've posted before, my '96 900SET A/T 5-door has only basic improvements: 4xKonis, high-end tires (S-03), SAS rear bar, K&N filter, sports exhaust. Just over 91k miles and running fine (knock on wood). I've accrued about $800-1,000 toward upgrades/improvements and I'm trying to decide what to do next. Mainly looking for a modestly better acceleration, but not to the stage where the A/T is jeopardized by excesive torque increase. Front suspension is creaking, scrunching and generally noisy over speed bumps, too. Corners flatter with SAS bar, but still not really very "flat" in absolute sense - maybe limitation of the basic design? - so not focusing very much on that area now.
So among the choices for this year's bonus are: Viggen intercooler, chip upgrade, front suspension bushings, that T5Boost4 gizmo,...others? I'm not much of a DIY-er, so I plan to have the work done by my indy garage in conjunction with the 95,000 mile service in a couple of months, so I have some time to continue dithering. Just thought I'd ask for free advice. TIA.
