Here come the mods

I purchased my G 06 coupe just a few weeks ago and I love it. I have read through dozens of posts, looked over tons of pics from these forums... and apparently I have the mod my car bug.

On Friday 13th ... I will be taking my car to Concept Z and Pitstop Performance in Phoenix to have the following done.

    Going to take a before and after video to compare the difference in the sound... I like the stock sound but I want a little deeper and a bit louder, not to much though. Also some HP gain is always nice.

    Those of you with more experience let me know what you think.



    Future things I want... new sound setup, not thrilled with the Bose thing.
    Paint front grill black.

    Hopefully this will cure the bug for a bit.

    Congrats on your new ride, i like the color. The MREV2 from Motordyne would go good with the 5/16 spacer.

    jesus christ! dont buy the jwt combo! Just buy a used z-tube and a k&n drop in filter! If you have extra money buy a MREV2 to match w/ the MD 5/16 spacer

    With exhaust thats a good choice!

    Ill recommend changing all the fluids. Oil, differential, tranny fluid.
    Best safe than sorry.

    I'm not sure on the MREV2, my car is an auto... I know, what was I thinking

    Not sure what kind of gains that will give me with an auto... I did speak with Tony at Motordyne, he said there would be an improvement but not like the revup engine gets. So just not sure yet.

    I Just did the oil... but you nailed it. They are going to do the differential, tranny and replace with Redline fluids.

    Congrats on the purchase. Seems like you did some research on here and found the right mods to start work. Nice work. Most people come on here and just ask when a lot of the info is right in front of their face. Congrats again and make sure to post more pictures and video when the work is done.

    thats good. i used redline w/ mine too
    so your auto huh? yeah just get a spacer.
    Sway bars is a good MOD too. i have hotchkis! eliminates body roll
    Also if you have extra money then a good set of coilovers would be nice

    Best Value for your $....!

    Nice looking coupe, I'd forgo all the other mods and get MotorDynes MREV2
    and 5/16" spacer to begin with....that is the best value for you money!
    No the mention the largest gain the RWHP. Like was mentioned above get
    the z-tube and the K&N drop in filter, no real gains with intakes just sound.
    Then you can consider the HKS HP dual exhaust, you're gonna love how this
    sounds....
