Recommended order for mods?

I recently ordered my sonic and at some point I want at least an intake, exhaust, and tune.

I know the best route is to just do all at once but I don't really want to shovel out all that cash right away.

I also have driven a premium car for the last 7 years and like the idea of not having a 93 tune for now lol.

Is it worth it to get an intake or exhaust without a tune? I know I'll get more out of it but I guess I'd rather just get the intake first, see how I like it and go from there.

Other than sound it isn't worth getting an exhaust and intake without a tune, the factory tune calls for a designated torque output and once it sees more it will reduce power to match the factory output. The tune is going to be the biggest bang for the buck mod and will get you the small gains (and let you keep them) that the intake and exhaust will give you.

yeah, tune was the first mod I got on my car now. I'll prob just run it stock awhile until I miss the power haha. So maybe like 1000 miles. ha.
