Money to burn

well ive come into some money recently.

i love to play online poker and have some skill.

ive made quite a bit of money and want to make my Cobalt SS faster.

i already have the GM stage 2 kit. (i know that there are other options but this was my choice.)

the only problem is the fact that the car is a lease(wanted to keep payments low)
thing is there is a 80% chance ill buy the car outright at the end of my lease.

so the question is.....what do i get?

the ZZP header and downpipe is very tempting. along with their engine and tranny mounts.

JBP strut bar is nice looking and their CAB's look like the right solution to the wheel hop.

ive also had my eye on a short throw shifter
((TWM, B@M, and Hurst(what ever happened with that?))

lower springs are always a good buy.
along with a cold air intake
(though with the space available i think just adding a high flow filter will have similar gains))

Please chime in...
if you have any of the mods listed give me your two cents.....
Help a fellow Cobalt guy out with some good advice.

Thanks everybody in advance.

Intake and strut bar are always nice.

How about some lightweight rims with some better rubber?

the jbp cab's should almost eliminate wheelhop on there own and don't create the vibrations that an engine dampener would. other than that, i'd say the 2.8 pulley, intake (air box mod with a dryflow if you want to go that route), and some sort of exhaust. also, if you're wheel hop isn't completely gone from the CAB's you can always get the poly engine mount to go with em.
