no idea what your post is asking.. if you mean you want to mod it more or if you are asking whether or not your current mods should be removed? anyways I would suggest some rims and a drop as well as tint for appearance. there aren't many performance mods that you don't have besides the plenum spacer and mrev2

So your car came with:
Exhaust(Borla)
Intake(Stillen)
Aero Package
Brembo brakes
Swaybars(Can be Stillen or Hotchkis)

Stock swaybars are black

As far as where you should head to next with your mods.
I would say:
5/16th MD spacer
Coilovers(BC Racing best bang for the buck)

Leave it at that unless you want to do Stereo or Cosmetic work.
Performance wise that would be about it unless you get a Uprev reflash or go FI.

i was talking about modding it more and im thinking its stillen bc the previous owner had the stillen intake..

im thinking about the motordyne intake manifold upgrade and spacer also thinking about
utec
je or wiseco pistons rods retainers and springs
powdercoat the rims black?
stillen torque dampner
arc polished shift ****
etc

just trying to find the best thing to start with the engine im guessing a spacer the manifold then move onto the camshafts pistons rings and studs
then utec and map my modifications

The stock internals can handle up to 450whp.
You definitely not reaching that level unless you add some kind of FI(Turbo's or Supercharger).
So opening up the block and doing internals is a waste of $$$.
I would recommend the Uprev software over the Utec if your planning on staying NA(Less wiring more OEM look).

Everything else you posted is a matter of taste and that is up to you.

Welcome to Driver G Motion....!

From what you currently have the MotorDyne 5/16" spacer would be the best
mod for your Daily Driver. Post some pic and enjoy your G35!
