Adding a larger FMIC, DP, exhaust, would add power and allow me to run around 10.5-11psi without tuning. Would put it into the low 200whp range, and result in ~14.0-14.2 1/4 mile times nearing 100mph at the trap.

For me though the power is fine where it is, and I like the stock exhaust because it is pretty quiet when I just want to drive relaxed. I thought about a 2.5in straight pipe out of the turbo, but I just can't deal with the noise on my DD...maybe later though. All I want right now is a roll-bar over winter and then better brakes and tires in the spring, maybe more will come when I get another car to drive around as a DD.

Handling is...yea . Very little body roll, tight steering, and very small, light, and agile overall, but there is room to work that as well ;)
