Only upgrade for trackwork... Which I doubt you'll do in an auto...Mods first. Tune, injectors, plugs, cat and replacement piping will see over 300rwkw... Which will be an 11 second car : if you get one of rapids cooler kits, it's perfect! Has all piping and cooler that can flow 550rwkw... Usually $1800, on sale for $1000... Only 2 left...

Member 1,008 Member For: 16y 8m 6d Gender: Male Posted 23/03/11 01:11 PM Posted 23/03/11 01:11 PM What I think needs doing is whatever can be done to improve traction, so LSD shocks bushes tyres...Depends if you want to go around corners fast, if so I'd have started with a different model..I got 300ish rwkw stops and turns just fine, upgraded tyres help quite a bit there, mildly lowered, it goes around a corner ok!Brakes are sh*t, but it stops 1-2 times from high speed plenty good, but if you were racing it or driving like a knob on the street then you need to look at something thereThe real upgrade it needs is a proper sound systemHow fast do you want it to go?I'd just do cooler pipes injectors and highflow cat for decent power stock turbo, there's cars making more power than I do that use stock intake and cooler, I have PWR cooler had bpr air box etc... But if you go high flow turbo then you need to look at a cooler and maybe intake...... I just did intake for noiseI went for a ride in the herrod car, goes about the same as mine and that had a standard air box, but standard intake doesn't sound like a jet at take off like a turbo side intake can

Then lower it, and tune. Brakes aren't that bad from stock.

I'd hate to pull up with a boat on. Pulling a trailer is awesome, you cant even feel it. But stopping takes a fair bit of foot pressure. Lucky I dont do it often. Trailer brakes would be the go on anything heavy I suppose.......so pulling a boat would be fine.
