Awaiting Delivery at the end of April! First Mods!

My car should be in soon, and I cant wait for my round one mods.
I'd like the communities opinion on my decisions so far.

Europipe Exhaust with Fabspeed Tips
EvoM ECU Flash
Looking at 360 Forged wheels but with all these service problems I'm not so sure.

My goals for the car for this summer is to add about 80-100 whp, and have it sitting on new wheels.
p.s. I'm loving the deep dish look on the turbo!

Thanks for all input, and I'll be posting pics, and hopefully a sound clip as well.
Chris

I'd say live with it without the flash for the time being. Has plenty of power out of the box. Once you get tired of that then add the flash.

welcome to the forum. I think the turbo has plenty of go, but if you live outside of the city and can actually use all 500hp, then I guess you might as well start modding. A few cosmetic mods to differentiate yourself from the pack is nice.

yeah I looked into the porsche aero kit, and that's not an option on the cab.

Are there any subtle aftermarket wings that look nice?

I got my 09 in oct, welcome and enjoy!
I did a few things at delivery, EVO headers, Cargraphic exhaust, BRV's and IPD PLenum. At 800 or so miles I did the EVO ECU.
Suspension is next, coilovers, sways.
I'll probably get around to wheels, IC's, new turbo's, Techart wing, next year.

You've been busy eh I think suspension is a good next step. It'll settle down a bit between shifts for starters

It sounds like you have a nice stage 2 engine setup. wheels are a personal choice.
