Well now that I read more about the MR Bilsteins it seems they are a bit softer than the kybs on the non-MR. So I believe I will just get the swift springs. What about GTworx springs? Anyone heard anything on those? That's my research for today becuase they are only $189! But I would rather do it right the first time rather than buying cheap.

I have been collecting parts for my own car myself. Next year she won't be a stock turbo slug anymore.
My buddy it making a tubular manifold. Stock turbo is staying on the car but it's getting port/polished/coated. He's also making me a full exhaust and intercooler piping with new core. What's the thickest core you can fit without modifying anything? 3.25"-3.5"?

On the warranty, well as soon as I take it in for them to replace my timing belt idler pully I will be moding....and screwed!

Happy Turkey day
