1.c/f hood w/sti hood scoop
2.front/rear swaybars..(looking at the helix 21mm ones?)
3.defi amber boost gauge..hehe
4.endlinks(do i need this if i get the sways)
5.Gruppe-S Light Weight Pulley
6. Cusco Shifter Bushings
7.hid's
8.samco Ancillary 9pc hose kit
9.intercooler,radiator or turbo inlet hose
10.radiator shroud
as far as the swaybar's and endlinks what would be the best set-up?

It's your cash, so feel free do whatever the hell you want, but if this was my list, I would go like this:
2. rear swaybar and endlinks (screw the front)
6. Cusco Shifter Bushings
10. radiator shroud
7. hid's
9. intercooler,radiator or turbo inlet hose
8. samco Ancillary 9pc hose kit
3. defi amber boost gauge..hehe
Wouldn't do the Gruppe-S Light Weight Pulley, and boost gauge is last if you're not really playing with the boost engine management wise. Shifter bushings and sway are something you will feel. The hoses are iffy, I personally wouldn't replace unless mine were broke. Also, I've heard of aftermarkte turbo inlet hoses causing performance problems.
