. Do sway bars and strut bars really help?
. What's the diff b/w a sway and a strut bar?
. Do lowered springs/shocks/struts/coilovers give a bigger handling increase vs sway/strut bars
. What the heck is the diff b/w a shock and coilover, and which do I need? shock/springs/struts/coilovers
K... nuff for now..

How do you install a turbo
How much does it cost to upgrade the internals of a SOHC motor to allow more boost
What is required for this?
How do you swap a head? Is it easy? Eg, d16y7 to d16y8 head etc
What are some good but cheaper upgrades for your fuel delivery system if you go turbo route? Can you buy parts off of say ITR's like fuel pump etc? Injectors?
everything I wana know about turbos.
