ok im looking to do either ARK drilled and slotted rotors all around with braided lines, or eibach springs and a custom dual exhaust with cat delete. or so i do something else. ill have about 600-700 bucks to spend and just wanted some thoughts on what yall would do

What does moving to the ARK rotors give you?

 

[quicksilverKoup]

looks and performance. but now im also looking at the kspec 12" rotors with 2 piston caliper upgrade but those are 750 shipped

I would do brakes last, gotta up the hp first!!!

 

[quicksilverKoup]

basically the exhaust would be for looks(still hooked up), but when im worried about hp ill do tk's turbo kit with a built motor

 

[Jcaloon]

I'd upgrade to some different wheels before rotors, so you can actually see the rotors well. What about the TK cf good?

 

[quicksilverKoup]

I was thinking about getting the cf hood when I get the turbo kit. Ill prolly just go with the springs. And I have a 2011 sx and like the 17s that are on it

The review on the Kia racing car mentioned that the SX brakes are very good already and didn't require much if any modifications by Kinetic Mortor Sports.

Go with the springs. The brakes are good but I will eventually switch over to some drilled and/or slotted discs only because the thin spokes on my wheels show how ugly the small discs and calipers are. If you're keeping the stock wheels you can't really see them that well so you should be fine.

do springs and exhaust first. brakes are pointless in my opinion because A. our cars arent that fast B. Im not racing autocross C. stock ones have plenty of stopping power

.02, springs. Might as well make it good in the twisties. Brakes would be my second, though I would save-up for a pads and rotors and install 'em at once.

If and when a reprogrammer is available that will up my hp to over 200 then I will invest in exhaust and intake. Till then stock is fine.
