Bars or Brakes
Not 100% sure if I'll buy either right now but which one should I go with first.
I don't race the car either way and as you guys can tell I like having a modified car to show off.

.... your mag article said otherwise 
I dunno which Id go with... Either is going to affect a seperate performance aspect.. I dunno which one I would pick. Probably the stranos... I could care less about stopping lol.

Holy big picture Batman!!
Fine he just wording it incorrectly because all those are under the future mods.
But that's not important. I'm just trying to figture out which way to go with my next mod.

Yeah thats what I thought... but I saw the current mods and got confused... I was just reading it a couple days ago, thats why it stuck out to me, cause I didnt know you 'had' c5 brakes.. but it makes sense now.

I would say brakes. Its probably one of the most overlooked areas of improvement. You can have all the power in the world, but what good is it if you can't stop.
I view all areas of performance as safety areas as well. For instance- you are on the highway driving typical highway speeds. Average stopping distances at 70 mph are typically around 170 ft in perfect conditions. If you can reduce that by 15-20 ft you are going to have a car that is a lot safer. That 20 ft can mean the difference from just having to change your underwear to having to change you underwear and rebuild the front of your car.
