My first car, worked hard for it but finally bought it this past January on my birthday as a gift to myself haha.04 coupe, 120k on the dash

 

Congrats on the new car, any big plans in the near future?

 

Right now the plans are power, but I've seen you can't really squeeze too much out of the vq engine. I'm working on exhaust rn since I just did wheels and tires about 3 months ago. Looking for some motordyne art pipes so if anyone has some let me know and we can work out a deal haha.

 

 

Depending on how far you want to go on the car things like a GOOD exhaust system and intake plenum spacer are a great place to start. Another often overlooked upgrade that makes a nice difference is an aluminum driveshaft, reasonably priced as well. If you have the 6MT option going with a lightweight flywheel AND the aluminum driveshaft makes it feel 50hp quicker even though it technically doesn't "create" power, it just frees up rotating mass so it makes the same power FASTER.

 

Fixed for you cleric lol.
