My plan is:

Replace All Mounts & bushings - fix all clunks, squeaks, rattles,

Upgrade Struts & Springs

New Summer tires

Bring to the dealer for an alignment.

 

DW fuel pump & 850cc injectors

Upgrade the tune from Stage 2+ to Stage 3.

Dynamat the trunk area to lighten drone a bit.

 

Save to give the powertrain a complete overhaul.

 

Go on a cruise through the Mountains, maybe even get in a track day.

 

Enjoy the car.

Mine was stock for about 5 months, and I told myself at first that I wouldn't do any upgrades. But coming from a car where I had 4 times as much in mods as it was worth in stock condition... yeah, right. :lol: Took me until month 3 to start researching, and then I decided to upgrade when I had to drop in a new engine. "While I'm in there..." :lol:

 

But, my plans for 2013 are to buy and install the following things:

 

IP&T oil line

Perrin UP blanket

Gaskets, etc. for turbo install

South Bend Stage 2 Daily 6MT clutch

 

And then to install the following things that I already have:

 

BNR Evo 16G (and possibly get a dyno tune)

PTP turbo blanket

BP TMIC kit

Koni Yellows

Fulton, what are the benefits of the IP&T oil line. I should probably upgrade.

No benefits on stock turbo. In fact, it may hurt. The oil line has a much higher flow rate than the stock metal lines. The higher flow rate can blow out the seals on the stock turbos, from what I hear.

 

On upgraded turbos, it provides the higher flow rate they need for proper oiling, but also has a high-flow filter to prevent damage due to oil contamination. BNR requires it to honor the warranty on his turbos.

Thanks for the info man. I will def get one once I upgrade the turbo

Keep it stock (unmolested) and carry out preventive maintenance. How many non mod owners out there?

 

I lasted about 3 months stock until my TOB went.. Then I decided to upgrade the clutch and TOB to prevent premature failure. That led to a new LW SMFW, plus all transmission mounts/bushings. The real mods started a few months after that, once I got connected with a local tuner. Now it takes serious self control not to buy parts with every paycheck. I've got the bug..

"While I'm in there.." is an easy way to spend 2 to 3 times what you were going to spend in the first place.. My TOB ended up costing me close to $1400 in parts because of this logic.. not to mention going stage 2.. :eek:
