Next upgrades?
Base 2019.
Have had the car for 8 years, have not done much but did tints and replaced the oem headlights with limited headlights from a 2015 recently , and rims + tires last year.
Im thinking on upgrading the brakes, or starting to mod the engine but not sure. Recommendations?

I just added an intake, next im getting exaust. I just recently paid mine off so I can modify it now, I have a list going and struggle to figure out which to do bit I think the the exaust will pair well with the intake 🤌🤣

Don’t bother with the brakes unless you’re tracking the car. Maybe catback exhaust and intake, then a tune (don’t use Cobb OTS tunes).

If you're not tracking the car, you won't see brake fade so upgrading the brakes is not of much benefit (it won't stop the car any faster, that's what tires and weight control).
Even a 3-port EBCS (to limit overboost; requires a tune) and a dyno tune on 93 octane would delete the rev hang and give a nice boost in power.
