I give you one to two months tops before you start modding the MR.

I have a few mods that I'll do because they are totally and easily reversible and they are not likely to ruin the driveability or reliability of the car. No matter what anybody says, nothing drives better than stock. Perhaps you get more power or a lower stance or whatever, but it will come at a cost somewhere down the line
Agree totally!

Dude, I can quit anytime.. You are right technically speaking, but the mods I'm gonna do are kind that require nothing more than a screwdriver I'm not even gonna change the HU or anything (wanna buy an great Alpine HU and the kit to replace the cubby hole with the HU?). Whatever is done to this car will be fully and easily reversible by me in minutes, anytime, with little or no tools.

No E/I mods and anything that requires dismantling anything in the engine bay....
No racing clutches or any kind, shape or flavor
No fmic
No AEM anything
No Apexi anything
No Injectors other than stock
No one with a name even remotely resembling Boost Solutions will ever have access to my MR, no way, no how

Lets see, have I left out something else?..... We'll, I'll post it as soon as I think about it

modded car is cheaper than stock car when you want to sell it. especially to a dealer.

Oh, absolutely. Not only that, but private parties don't usually want modded cars either..... The best way to go is to only change what can easily be changed back to stock without depending on anybody else to do it.
