What to do next?

Looking for opinions on what I should do to my car next. I have the itch to buy some new parts but I just dont know what to get. I would like to get into some more suspension mods and maybe some more exterior mods as i am pretty happy with the power it makes for now. Anything that would make the car perform better is what im looking for so im down for engine mods aswell.

here is a current mod list

Engine/trans

E85 513 AWHP 475 TQ
Stock Bottom End
Buschur FS 635 turbo kit
Cosworth M2 cams
Cosworth Headstuds
Buschur exhaust

Forge RS Bov
Buschur Intake
Forge MBC
PTE 1000cc injectors
Walboro
AMS fuel Rail
AMS small battery kit
AMS front engine mount
Defi linked Boost, Oil, and Fuel pressure
Defi HUD
AEM wideband
Turbo Timer
Spec Twin Clutch
Jacks tranmission rebuilt trans.

Suspension/wheels

Teso Sports Coilovers
Matte Bronze Work Emotion XT7 Wheels 18x9.5 +20

Exterior

+1 APR Front Splitter.

Also, go on AMS's website and follow their suspension stage upgrades. Simple yet makes some very noticeable differences.

if you want to make the car faster my suggestion would be to start modifying the driver. Do an autox or an HPDE/track day and I'll bet you'll walk away thinking your car has PLENTY of power as it is, lol.

Those dark UK badges on the back would look nice.

I like that Apr front splitter, The car is tuned on E85. I have been thinking about a rear sway bar for a while aswell. Thanks for the suggestions guys keep them coming.

1) upgrade coilovers? From a quick search ... swifts+bilsteins would be an upgrade.

2) do you have a good alignment? corner weighted?

3) the seat lowering rails are a awesome.

4) like post #6, track days are great "upgrades" lol

What are the limitations of the current setup?

I ask because its a matter of physics, driving style and skill. You don't want to fix whats not broken and someone else's fast setup might come with a learning curve...
