Default mods?

I am debating whether or not to mod my car at all, But i figured i should ask the masters here. Is it worth it to do things like sway bars and strut bars on a lease, as well as how much does it help handling, i am new to a car from a truck so the handling is already amazing to me. any help is appreciated as well as an other mods possibly worth it.

for a lease, a cheap mod would be remove the air silencer crap and add a kartboy short shifter with bushings. no hp gains but you hear the engine a little better and the shifter makes driving spicy.

peace, leroy

Yeah, the snorkel removal is strictly an audio mod. You can hear the turbo spool a little louder and not to mention hearing the BOV when the windows are up and the radio is off.

I dont know about cutting into a car that is not mine. I would probably slap a nice catback on there so you can have one of those beautiful boxer tones, because you can put stock back on when the lease is over.
